G,

Ostensibly then, as soon as a new tyre is designed and certified, the Concorde should be able to fly again?

Or do the wings and tanks also need to be shielded against debris? The first is readily doable, the latter not so easy or cheap.

What else must be done to enable Concorde to fly again?

As an aside, the Kegworth crash was more than ten years ago, and my memory on that is fuzzy. Could you also elaborate on the details and its cause?
