Concorde sails to Scotland
16/04/2004
The last decommissioned aircraft is being taken by barge
up the east coast to Scotland.
It is due to arrive at the Museum of Flight in East
Lothian on Monday, where it will be welcomed by Culture and
Tourism Minister Frank McAveety.
The Executive gave a grant of £2m to the National
Museums of Scotland towards the costs of the transfer and
exhibition of the aircraft in the museum.
