The flagship of the fleet (because of its BOAC registration) first flew on 27 February 1975 from Filton UK. It made its final flight to Manchester Airport – where a special "glass hangar" has now been built at the viewing park for its display – on 31 October 2003 after flying 22,260 hours. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concorde_aircraft_histories
