The entire collection of "Ailes Anciennes Toulouse" has been moved to a different location only very recently... one can merely hope that at least some of the bits and pieces of "0001" have survived...
Maybe VOLUME can tell us more?
Sorry, no. Haven´t been there for more than a year and at that time it was just clear that they have to move due to the A350 FAL, but the details were not decided.
Found one more picture...

Sad to see this masterpiece of engineering rotting away.
I always thought that the sloped area at the aft end of the floor was the rear airstair (just present on the pre-production aircraft), but I just read on heritageconcorde.com/ that this is for "system routing". Does somebody know more ? Seems to be a lot of space for systems that would end just in the middle of the cabin.
