...The rear tank on Concorde needed to be full at take off for trim purposes....

No, it didn't, and it wasn't.


...As speed increased fuel was transfered forward to the main tanks...

No, it wasn't. As speed increased fuel was in fact moved rearwards into tank 11.


...if you are interested in the complete fuel management for trim...

I am, but, with respect, either your source of information is incorrect or you have misunderstood it.
