With Fox-Charlie being kept under "care-and-maintenance" for the judicial enquiry, all kind of rumours kept flying .
Now that the program has been terminated, the chances of seeing a Concorde in the Paris skies in 2012 are less than seeing a Santos Dumont dirigible replica... Might be an idea actually. Would cost a damn sight less than the $200 million or so needed to keep a Concorde airworthy until 2012. Gordon is right, the spares are gone, the infrastructure is gone. The money needed could be better spent.
