Concorde May Fly Again

The BBC reports

The engines on a French Concorde are to be examined as the first move in
a £15m project aiming to get the supersonic passenger jet back in the air.

The Rolls Royce engines of the former Air France Concorde will undergo an
initial examination to see what work needs to be done to start the engines.

Concorde was retired seven years ago, but it is hoped the jet could return
to flight in a heritage capacity.

The tests by a French-British team will take place near Paris.
