The iconic British Airways Concorde G-BOAD supersonic jet will return to NYC’s Intrepid Museum after it spent months being restored at the Brooklyn Navy Yard.
The Concorde, which holds the record for the fastest transatlantic crossing by a passenger aircraft, was moved from Brooklyn to Weeks Marine in Jersey City, where it will be stored overnight.
It will make its final journey back to the Intrepid Museum at Pier 86, where it is expected to arrive after 9 a.m.
The long needle-nose-like jet looked striking with its fresh coat of paint as it traveled past the Brooklyn Bridge, One World Trade and the Statue of Liberty on its journey to the Garden State.
The historic aircraft first made its debut at the Intrepid in 2003.
