    Why not join in with discussions on the latest Concorde developments

    Our Facebook forum is where we discuss in detail our current projects, share photo's and where fans of the aircraft can ask questions direct to the engineering team. We are proud to be associated with both Brooklands restoration and the Le Bourget Conservation team so the pool of knowledge is immense. Many of our engineers have years of knowledge of working on the aircraft. So like our site, join our forum and follow us on Twitter.
