Im sure there is/was a rule you couldnt pick two in a row, and second place then chooses instead, but Im expecting someone else to win this one, its still early yet, and I know that you guys are easily capable!

Really good picture, I like the old yellowed effect, you could also add some scratches/noise to it to make it feel a bit tatty, this site has some:

Well looks like a plane, likely a passenger one that goes very fast....

Concord?

Where was it taken - is it in some museum or something now?

Not hard to work out really was it, yeah Concorde. That was the last ever concorde built G-BOAF, currently parked outside at Filton where it was built, it has a visitors center but shes being taken out of the pubic domain in the autumn for maintenance and there is no reopen date, rumour is she wont be back.

Shes quite a sorry sight really sat outside, plastic stuffed in places to stop birds nesting out in all weathers.

There are a few others about in the country in museums so can still see one if you want.

Should have been obvious it was Concorde, no other passenger plane goes faster than sound.

I was incredibly disappointed when they decided to pull them from service. They might have used up lots of fuel but they were also massive status symbols for the UK and France, something that no other country has managed to achieve.

Eat your hearts out Yankees! :P
