Went to the Le Bourget museum last week and I can agree with Chris that this is one of the best Concorde displays out there with ir France "sierra Delta" as well as the Concorde 001 testbed. Interesting to note that the airframes are diferent on both types and this is reflected by the window sizes where SD has the trademark small windows of Concorde whilst 001 has larger windows. Would love to see the ones in UK also maybe next visit. Le bourget also ha an excellent walkthrough of AF's first 747 include cutouts of various compartments a real eye-opener. The museum also has numerous aircraft outside where you can walk around and have a look including the mighty Caravelle and Mercure. It also has a great early days of flying section. I really recommend if in Paris and have enough time go to this museum.
