Defunct Concorde sold off online


"Yes, darling, that turbo jet engine would look wonderful next to the coffee table..." One of Britain's best-loved aircraft - the recently decommissioned Concorde - is going under the hammer online today, albeit in pieces.

British Airways is flogging off 150,000 items from the now defunct plane at an auction in Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire. Memorabilia-hungry flight fans who can't get to the site can listen to a webcast of the auction and bid by phone.
