British Airways Concorde Returns to Intrepid Museum After Restoration

The iconic supersonic jet has been restored and will resume public tours on April 4.

The British Airways Concorde, the only commercial supersonic jet to have flown, has returned to the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in NYC after months of restoration.
The restoration process included stripping the old paint, sanding, and reapplying paint along with its iconic markings.
The Concorde holds the record for the fastest trans-Atlantic passenger flight, traveling from London's Heathrow Airport to JFK in less than three hours.
Public tours of the Concorde at the Intrepid Museum will resume on April 4.
The Concorde fleet was retired in 2003 following the fatal crash of Air France Flight 4590 and concerns over high ticket costs.
