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

British Airways Boeing 777 at London Gatwick & Aviation Photos
Today I spent a hour at London Gatwick. Time was not on my side today but had to pop up and see the NEW livery Emirates A380 arrive. I have posted some photos below for you to see. The video is very short so these photos will be better to look at. I do enjoy taking a photograph and have done so for over 50 years.

Spotting Location Gatwick Lowfield Heath Road

Have you ever wondered where the best places are to go for spotting at Gatwick. I have decided to make a series of the locations that I use to spot and take pictures.
Purple parking feature in the video but we have not been asked or have received no payment from them.
