BA grounded its fleet of seven Concordes six years ago, giving six of them to musuems.  However, Alpha Bravo remains in storage at Heathrow and according to Times Online, a Dubai-based consortium has big plans to turn this legendary aircraft into a tourist attraction.

“Six British Airways Concordes are on display and open for public viewing at Locations in the UK and abroad.  We’re looking at a number of options for the seventh, including a permanent home at Heathrow but we have not made any decisions yet on its final location”, a BA spokesperson told Gulf News on Wednesday.

The famous supersonic plane may settle in Dubai alongside the much-loved QE2 ocean liner which is already destined to become a luxury floating hotel at the Palm Jumeirah.  The BA spokesperson declined to comment on this, whilst officials at the Dubai-based consortium were unavailable for comment.
