@MaxVernon Oh, dear. A mouldering concorde rotting at Heathrow. Post-Thatcher Britain in a nutshell.

@ConcernedOfTunbridgeWells reading through that article, I found there's another one at a museum at Brooklands. Not rotting this one!

Very near me, I may visit it.

Paul White

you'll have to be quick

ypercubeᵀᴹ

Paul White

@PaulWhite Not any more, it isn't

Too expensive to re-certify after the Air France one blew up.

Talk:Emu War

== earlier comments == Some context from Emu, perhaps about changing Australian ecological approaches to Emus would be better. Hard to see why this is separate. --Wetman 07:15, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC) It's pretty much a duplicate of the information I added to emu years ago. I see no pressing need to merge it, but have no objection either. Tannin 01:22, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)LMAO dumb australians lost to some emus XD — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.184.125.226 (talk) 19:40, 4 January 2018 (UTC) == Capitalization == To the user who keeps wrongly capitalizing the word "emu" in this article - stop it...

My god is an awesome God.

Who knew a genocidal prison colony could lose a war against birds.

@ConcernedOfTunbridgeWells the article (or Wikipedia?) says that besides the accident, there was also (later) an issue with Airbus stopping support.

What support were they providing? I thought Concorde wasa joined project of British and French industries

(although I had lots of fun at the previous job, pretending to think that it was only French. And making bets that everyone - outside of Britain - thought that it was French)
