The Runway Visitor Centre http://www.manchesterairport.co.uk/manweb.nsf/Content/runwayvisitorpark has been set up next to the runway at Manchester Airport, as an attraction for enthusiasts. As well as offering the opportunity to view aircraft taking off and landing, there are also five aircraft on display. Whilst four of them are outside the "gem" of the collection, the British Airways G-BOAC flagship Concorde, is kept inside this hangar used to host corporate events and as a conference centre.
