what do you mean by divine intervention? if you mean the air france crash, then no. it was economics. i flew on it 16 times and remain sorry that it doesnt fly anymore.

silly question - God does not act like that. I'm sorry I never had a chance to fly on the Concord

oh ok. Will i was quite impressed with their performance actually, and their ability. Ive seen the air crash investigations of the France crash, it is quite amazing isn't it?
Wern't they removed from service because they were too expensive to run?? Am I right? Or is that a silly question as well?

"Divine Intervention"? What are you smoking, AirportParty?
See Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concorde for all you answers on this. It's a very tangled story!
