Loosing Revenue... Concorde Problem

As I have seen in many official places on the net linked below, Concorde had minimum of 122 seats and this means we now loose revenue for 22 tickets minimum.
Also some registers had 128 seats which was rare, but the 122 is exactly confirmed by WikiPedia and Airliners.net:

1) I edited your thread title. Using all caps and multiple punctuation points is not only unneeded, but rude.

2) Concorde was technically certified to carry up to 128, however it was provisioned that the interior arrangement for each aircraft had to be individually approved. Both BA and Air France configured and operated their aircraft with 100-104 seats, so no aircraft was actually ever approved to fly with more than that.

3) Never quote airliners.net or wikipedia. Neither are good sources for information and why we don't list them as references on our new aircraft type page. I have pointed out many errors on the airliners.net pages over the years and cited the sources for information and none have been changed, so they have no desire to actually put up accurate information. Wikipedia, while nice, has absolutely no restriction on who can edit it. As such, many entries get edited by people who have no clue what they're doing and it takes days for them to be fixed.

Additionally, if you're loosing money on Concorde, you're either not operating it right, or your seat prices aren't right, because every other operator on FSAirlines is making good money using Concorde.
