[QUOTE="qdg2, post: 5477415, member: 100309"] It is "retired". Like the shuttle and perhaps the Model T. There are Concordes all over in museums. One in New York on the Hudson Weirdly, the Concorde was retired for one fatal accident. A tire blow out. A concern from the very start of the concept. Yet, that union shop "quality" proved itself for decades. Not mentioning the fuel guzzling nature of the engines. Technically they are built in France. Not all......never said all. Aren't most cars built by union shops? Jap whatever. Don't all manner of cars rust out in the "rust belt"? All made by similar circumstances and practices? Now, as far as all these companies aligning themselves with union labor.....that is a choice. And you are inferring that a non-union car company would put any profit/cost savings back into the quality of the product. Really? [/QUOTE]
