Little problem with the first poll, two airlines operated the Concorde on a regular basis, I can only vote for one.

I only know the last one cause there is a plane that has been opperating out of Manchester and every time I click on it it tells me the location of the pic and has a Concorde in the background (The air France Concorde.)

I thought Singapore only half operate the Concorde? I learned only half the plane was in their colors, half the cabin crew was theirs, and none of the compost crew was theirs. They spilt it with BA.

Also a bit of knowledge from Intrepid Air & Space Musuem, as the Concorde that operated that service was the Concorde they have there.
They had a wet lease on it so the insurance cabin crew and maintenance were provided for them by the leasing company then Singapore just flew it.

Josh_Mcmunn:
Singapore just flew it.
I was also told on the Concorde to at the Entrepid Air & Space Musuem that BA still flew them, as Singapore pilots weren’t trained to.
Reword it then Singapore had control of 1 of them and they had a crew to fly it for them.
Since more than half the voters didn’t like the post, I’ll just announce the answers like this:
1:
Braniff International (1 on short term lease)
British Airways
Singapore Airlines (1 on short term lease)
Air France
2: Aircraft ran over metal that ripped gear; rubber caught engine on fire
3: July 25, 2000
4: Charles De Gaulle

I just checked, it was October 24, 2003. I thought the question I put was when that crash happened

You asked “when was the last flight?”
