Concorde To Middle East

Was with some BA people in London last night. Apparently a Middle East airline has enquired with BA to purchase one Concorde to operate Supersonic Services from Gulf to various destinations after BA discontinues Concorde ops at the end of the year.

BA has "politely" declined the offer, even although it would have been a nice two-fingers to Sir Richard.

Anyone know who the carrier involved is? I find it hard to believe that it could have been EK or the newly-commercial sensible GF.

Newswatcher - you able to shed any light?
