The Concorde's final flight took place on October 23rd, 2003 — nearly 12 years ago. In another four years, however, it could once again be approved for lift off for charter flights.
The U.K.-based Club Concorde International, comprised of former Concorde pilots and charterers, and current enthusiasts, has raised roughly $186 million to put a Concorde back into commission.
Before 2019, though, it wants to put one on the River Thames.
The club would then charge roughly $25 per entrant and offer meals like those originally served on the Concorde.
The Club Concorde International plans to have the London attraction completed by late 2016 and wheels up on the second plane by 2019 to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the Concorde's inaugural flight.
If things go well financially for the endeavor, the club would like to launch a second charter Concorde in the future.
