Fly again ?? .................short answer NO !
There is no Engineering support for it now.
People ( the dreamers anyway ) seem to forget that not so small army of design signatories, and Engineering professionals that were employed to keep Concorde airworthy.
These dedicated engineers from both the manufacturers and AF / BA have all been disbanded / retired . A lot of the skills which enabled it to fly have now disappeared............ 1960s technology , Parts were very scarce even then, 10 years ago robberies from one to another just to get it away an everyday occurance, now there would be no such luxury. New parts would have to be designed, tested , certified and made .............just ain't gonna happen.
Concorde had the highest Engineering work per flying hour of any aircraft.........something like 42 manhours per flying hour. Compared to say a C5 Galaxy at 22 and Boeing 747 at 12.
A lot of unbelievable Bulls*it that went around when it was finally taken out of service..........
Virgin ( Branson ) got some cheap publicity with his offer , didn't once hear he was going to employ some 300 extra staff just to keep an Concorde flying.
If it wasn't so undignified to trade cheap shots with a National Icon , I would have liked to see BA say "OK , Here you are " and just towed any one of the Concordes over to the Virgin hangar . " Now lets see you get it in the air and keep it operating "
It would still be there now.
