The wackiest Boeing 747 I have ever seen. Dunsfold 2017 this 747 had fake engines put on by Pinewood studios. Made out of plywood and rotten by now. James Bond Casino Royale the plane in thats was a large models but close up they used this. They came to Dunsfold and filmed here at night. A friend of mine was one of the ambulances on standby here when they did the filming. The rest is smoke and mirrors and if you see the film you not know you were here or even outside. Boeing made a rule that the 747 aircraft was not recognisable as a 747 and that was achieved very well. The plane was used as a business meeting place but the inside is very damp and horrible. Bob Cooper may have some more info on this, from the time he worked on the VC-10. Last I heard it was down to be scrapped but then two BA 747 arrived to keep I company. The engines are so bad you can put you finger though the wood. Someone had when I was there and this is how I know. Malcolm Airspotters.com
