About this audio guide
This guide to the Runway Visitor Park near Manchester Airport is about work: the four-person flight deck crew who brought British Airways' flagship Concorde, G-BOAC, here on the thirty-first of October two thousand and three, and the park's manager who remembers when this was just a field by the runway. It touches the long working life recorded in her logbook and the tour guides who climb aboard with visitors today. Best heard beside the hangar, with the live runway in view.
