I always thought it was strange that nobody tried to do another supersonic passenger jet get after the Concorde was originally grounded. Even though they still aren't going to be real passenger planes anymore this is pretty cool. i'm stil sad i never got a chance to fly in one. I always wanted to do that as a kid.

According to the Telegraph newspaper, "Club Concorde" has raised £120 million ($186 million) for its "return to flight" plan and hopes to get one of the decommissioned aircraft back in the skies by 2019.

The group describes itself as "ex-captains, ex-charterers and people passionate about Concorde, working together to keep Concorde in people's hearts and minds."

Club Concorde says it has its sights on two Concordes -- both in France.

"The plan would be to purchase one of the Concorde and operate her as a private, heritage aircraft under neutral livery," says the club on its website.

"All restoration to flight costs would be borne by Club Concorde International who would also finance the construction of maintenance/display hangars at both the French and UK bases."

Supersonic craft were not cost efficient for the operators (if I'm remembering things right)

The staggering fuel cost to go supersonic is exactly what makes it so damn fun, though.
