An interesting take on what is, without a doubt, the "baddest" civilian aircraft ever built. How did you get access to the hangar, during cleaning?
 
I was looking out of an aircraft window as Concorde pulled into a docking bay.
She looked like a thoroughbred racehorse amongst the fat wide bodied cart horses.
Surprisingly, the wingspan didn't look so different to the wide bodied long haul commercials - it was just the fuselage was about a quarter of the width.
Would have loved to flown in one.

I like your photos of this Air & Space museum : no glorious shiny plane bodies, but a dark, almost funeral atmosphere, for a bygone era.
