Concorde Hangar, Runway Visitor Park at Manchester Airport
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.

Concorde Flight Deck
Although thought of as "modern", Concorde was designed in the 1960s. The array of analogue instrument controls and dials looks very complex compared to the computerised cockpits of 21st century aircraft.
