Heard the bearded wonder on the news today going on about Concorde.

Have BA considered Wet Leasing Concorde to him ??

I have seen on the thread about Airbus not continuing support and that would kill it, but maybe there are options if BA could bring themselves to do it.

It would have more than 1 potential upside.

a) Keep it in the sky and BA get it back when hopefully things improve.
b) If it is such a financial disaster, then BA have much to gain by shifting a whole load of debt Virgin's way.

I must say, Concorde in Virgin Colours does not look right but that's just my opinion.
