Concorde nears recertification Certification Approval to recertificate the Aerospatiale/British Aerospace Concorde could be given this week, according to official sources. This would take the form of airworthiness directives from the French and British aviation authorities requiring modifications, which would then be cleared for service one by one as the work is completed and approved. On 15 August the manufacturers presented the French civil aviation authority DGAC and the UK Civil Aviation Authority with all the documents recording the results of testing on the components implicated in the accident near Paris Charles de Gaulle airport on 25 July 2000, and on the modifications.
