That's awesome and yes I would! We are lucky to have a Concorde here at the Seattle Museum of Flight. Been through it about 10 times, lol. Nothing would make me happier than a Freewing Concorde with working nose. Twin 80 or 90mm...Sign me up!

"NASA has, from time to time, added escape devices to its shuttle fleet. For its first four flights, in 1981 and 1982, the Columbia featured ejection seats for the two-man crew. But these were removed as the shuttle crews expanded to five to seven members, and NASA deemed the shuttle safe enough to do without."

It's funny how different people think about stuff. The space shuttle was piloted by astronauts. Being astronauts I'm thinking they were dare devils to begin with. Honestly when Charley said that, I was thinking about the poor sap that had to fly that modified 747 with that space shuttle affixed to it's back the first time. LOL Unfortunately 747's I don't think have ever had ejection seats.
That space shuttle was a scary proposition from the very beginning. I don't believe it was ever safe to be honest, or as safe as they would like us to think it was. It was a expensive colossal waste of time is what it was. In my opinion at least.

Today I got into thinking of the Concorde because it was recently spoken of in this very forum. Which led me to think what type of power system would be idea for it. Which next led me to think of another airplane that has been highly requested with a similar engine layout the B1 Lancer. The power system could range from a variety of different setups but ultimately it will be what Freewing and Alpha decide is the ideal setup after a lot of testing. But my conclusion is that what ever power setup works best for the Bone could very likely also work for the Concorde.
So if there were to be a B-1 Lancer model that could increase the chances of there also being a Concord model. Which I am sure would sell well anyways. :Ligthbulb:
