Concorde Experience

From the race to break the sound barrier to the arrival of Scotland's Concorde in East Fortune, discover the story of Concorde.

Learn about the highs and lows of Concorde, find out about the technology behind supersonic flight and the luxury lifestyle so closely associated with it.

The Concorde Experience includes the chance to see Scotland's Concorde up close, an exciting exhibition for all the family, a 12-minute film presentation and on-board audio tours.

Visitors will be able to view Concorde as she looked when she last flew, and even walk under her wings.

The film presentation tells the story of Scotland's Concorde, G-BOAA through the eyes of the pilots, flight engineer, cabin crew and passengers. It includes news coverage of the historic final journey which took her not by air but by land and sea to the National Museum of Flight.

Follow in the footsteps of the rich and famous and take an on-board audio tour. An audio handset will guide you through the cabin, where you'll be able to see the original décor and inside the cockpit.

Information for visitors with special needs

The Concorde Experience exhibition area is fully accessible but due to the original design of Concorde we regret that wheelchairs and pushchairs are not permitted on board the aircraft. The exhibition does however feature a virtual tour of Concorde.
