The campaign to save Concorde will be stepped up - a year to the day after the plane's final flight.

The Save Concorde Group wants to see the supersonic aircraft win back its airworthiness certificate and return to the skies.

On Friday it will hand over a 20,000 signature petition to Airbus, the company which used to maintain it, at Filton in Bristol.

A copy of the petition has already been handed to 10 Downing Street.

To mark the first anniversary of Concorde's last flight, the group will also raise their glasses in a toast to the workers who created the plane.
