But what will it look like when scale-o-rama-ed to Concorde size ??

Maybe all the baggage can get stuffed into that needle nose. Making it big enough for a profitable number of passengers would make it incredibly long!

Where'd you get the photo, Greg?

'Cos, if that's the real 844, she was my favourite aircraft to work on

... but she was in much better nick back then.
