I think it depends on the history of the object :

if the last Concorde [1] had been treated in this way, I think
it would have been possible to consider it as historical from the
first minute of its immobilisation, a page of history is turned
after years of supersonic commercial flight, it is history.

On the other hand, a single aircraft with no history other than "we 
don't need it anymore" is not historic, neither now nor in 10 years,
it is at best a decoration
