Abstract

Following the declared intention of the People's Republic of China to buy Concorde, much interest at the Peking Fair is inevitably centred round the Olympus 593. Indeed, it seems possible the Chinese may be interested in undertaking the servicing and manufacture of spares of this considerably improved power plant. Noise reduction of the Olympus, achieved by SNECMA, is part of a comprehensive review of development since Concorde 001 appearing in the April issue.
