Discover the leading role played by Brooklands in the Concorde story, and how much of Concorde's design and manufacture took place here.
G-BBDG was the third Concorde built in Britain and this country's first production Concorde. First flown in February 1974, 'Delta Golf', as she is known, carried out a large part of the certification work that saw Concorde flying in commercial service between 1976 and 2003. Delta Golf was the fastest production Concorde and in 1974 she became the first aircraft ever to carry 100 people at twice the speed of sound - 1,350mph.
Take the Brooklands Concorde Experience and see inside one of the world's most famous aircraft. Relive the excitement of the supersonic age, on the only Concorde accessible in South East England. The 30 minute visit on board Concorde includes an exhibition in the rear cabin about how the aircraft was built and its connection with Brooklands. After passing through a display of Concorde interiors through the decades, take your seat in the front cabin for a virtual flight, piloted by Captain Mike Bannister. The flight deck may be photographed before you leave the aircraft.
