Metal strip on Concorde runway |
|
| France's Accident Investigation Bureau says it is now certain the fire seen trailing from the back of the airliner did not start in the engines. It says the 40cm long "thin metal strip" did not come from the aircraft, and one shred of tyre from the Concorde had a "substantial cut" in it. The BBC's Jonathan Charles reports.
