This is what happened to the entire Concorde fleet and where each one is at now

Only 20 Concordes were ever built – 10 French, 10 British.

They represented the peak of supersonic ambition… and the end of it, too.

When the program closed in 2003, every aircraft found a new life somewhere on Earth.

Here’s exactly where each one ended up.

FRANCE

1. F-WTSS – The first to fly

The first Concorde prototype took off from Toulouse on March 2, 1969. 

It completed 397 flights before retiring in 1973. 

Today it’s displayed at the Musée de l’Air et de l’Espace, Le Bourget, France.

This pre-production model was painted half in Air France colors and half in British Airways livery for joint promotional use. 

It was the first Concorde to cross the Atlantic. 

It now sits at the Musée Delta Athis-Paray Aviation near Paris, France.

Built for pilot training and system testing, the F-WTSB logged 909 flight hours before retirement. 

It’s preserved at the Aeroscopia Museum in Toulouse, France.

4. F-BTSC – The tragic one

This production Concorde was destroyed in the Paris crash on July 25, 2000, ending the jet’s commercial era. 

The remains were stored at Le Bourget before being scrapped in 2019.

The last to operate a commercial Air France service, it completed its final flight in 2003.

Retired early in 1982 after corrosion and parts cannibalization, it was dismantled in 1994. 

Sadly, only small components survive today.

11. G-BSST – Britain’s prototype

It was used mainly for test and demonstration flights.

This pre-production jet was used for high-speed intake testing and ICE trials. 

It flew 632 hours before retiring in 1977. 

It’s displayed at the Imperial War Museum in Filton, England.

13. G-BBDG – The spare-parts source

Originally kept semi-airworthy for emergencies, it later became a source of parts for British Airways’ Concorde fleet.

Restored in 2003, it’s on show at the Brooklands Museum in Surrey, England.

Nicknamed ‘Alpha Charlie,’ it flew 22,260 hours – more than any other Concorde.

It’s permanently displayed at England’s Manchester Airport.

The first Concorde to enter British Airways service in 1976, it connected London and Bahrain. 

It now resides at the National Museum of Flight in Scotland.

It’s still visible from Heathrow Airport’s perimeter road.

Operated jointly by British Airways and Singapore Airlines, it wore dual liveries during its service. 

It’s now an exhibit aboard the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York.

Shipped to the United States after restoration, it represents the British fleet abroad. 

It’s preserved at the Museum of Flight in Seattle.

20. G-BOAF – The last to fly

The final Concorde built and the last to ever take off, flying home to Filton in November 2003.
