The aircraft was an amazing piece of machinery that was marveled at the world over. More than many, I would like to see her in the air again as she inspired me to take a degree in engineering.
However the finances to keep an aircraft like that in the air are massive and we can discuss as long as we want to about how we should bring her back into service under any guise. Given the financial and environmental issues as well as public concern she isn’t going to be coming back. It’s something we will be able to think of fondly and tell our kids/grandkids “I remember when you could fly faster than a bullet in a lounge suit sipping champagne”
Sadly its one of the great icons lost to the financial pressure of the world we live in.
