Now that's just not funny...

Post by John »

"France's Museum of Air and Space has revealed that its announcement that Concorde was to return to the skies for a two-hour flight in June was a hoax. A statement on the museum's website had said Concorde would make a special flight from Paris on 16 June, breaking the sound barrier off Ireland. French news agency AFP picked up the story, only to retract it when it was confirmed as an April Fool.
