Concorde was already on the slippery path to obsolescence long before
the crash - many of the suppliers who made original parts for it had
gone out of business, either that or jigs and tools had been lost, so
many more parts were having to be specially made. So the costs of
keeping it running were rising year after year.

Which all goes to prove it should never have been allowed of the
drawing board .


Right we should never make anything which will become obsolete.

Guess that means back to the horse and cart huh !
