G-CONC in New Position

Postby Blackprojects » Wed Oct 03, 2012 10:02 am

This seems to be the Correct place for this as G-CONC is a Very Large Model of Concorde not the Kind that will fit in your House or even the Garden but still a Model!

G-CONC was the British Airways Heathrow Gate Guard for a very long time she eventually moved to Brooklands Museum and has been restored and Repainted by the Concorde Team of which i am a Member.

Last Saturday my Fellow Concorde Volunteers moved G-CONC into her Final Position at the Public Entrance to Merc benz World and Brooklands Museum.

G-CONC the Week before the Move on the 29th of September!
