Hi all .. Well i have another idea for a Campaign how a bout a james bond aircraft one .. Thats any aircraft the appears in any of the bond films ? there is quite a lot to choose from everything from a Cessna float plane to Concorde you could either try to copy the colors and liveries from the aircraft in the film or choose your own .

What do you think ?

How about something like this?

haha thats cool and i had a feeling you might be interested in this one Jess .. yeah well im sure theres a 737 in a bond film somewhere

There's a really great Varig Electra in Moonraker. It's in the background of the cable car scenes in Rio. It's the best scene in the whole movie. Everyone else was watching Roger Moore and I was watching the Electra. Oh, and the Concorde landing a few scenes earlier. What? I know my priorities

This will do, just nicely.

That is a cool idea, though I think most of us would need a list of aircraft that are eligible. So if someone could start compiling a list that would be excellent, I know some people have already started throwing out ideas.

Hi there

Sorry - nothing can beat Little Nellie (not even Concorde).

All the best

Rowan

There is already a few lists on the net the wikkippedia list is ok but it has aircraft missing from it. Its a good reason to watch a bond film tho haha. I can try and put a list together if needed.. Theres a Harrier in the living daylights and the mig 29s from golden eye are cool.. Who is going to try scaramangas flying car ???

First, listen to this while you're looking at the links below.

phhhewww thats a lot haha

Don't forget the rocket belt and the C-97

Then there's the silly flying saucer from the 1967 Casino Royale, and the C-47 the Indians jump out of ("I've always wanted to say this: MEEEEEE!") at the end.


Look closely; those are OH-6As, not AH-6s. 4 blade rotors and V tail, not 5 blades with a T tail. The IMPDB contributors got that wrong.

Jess you're like an aircraft identification android.

Very cool campaign proposal. I just watched Golden Eye and I have a Euro Copter Tigre to assemble.

The General Dynamics F-111 from Octopussy (1983) would also be a good choice for me; I was stationed at RAF Upper Heyford where part of the film was shot. During the time I was there (late 80's), the supply squadron had the Octopussy sign displayed in one of their buildings.

I was sceptical about an aerial campaign about James Bond, but after seeing the list, if I were to join, it would definitely be the B-17 in Thunderball. That was a scene-stealer for sure. (As was the flying AMC in The Man with the Golden Gun)
-Sean H.

some good interest so far and to think i wasnt even going to mention it haha ... @ Jess do you know of any Cessna U206G Stationair kits ?? or something as near as i can get in 1/48

The only thing which even approaches that shape is the Minicraft 172 which is a decidedly smaller airframe in all dimensions. You'd need to scratch-build it.

There are solid models available in thirty-twoth scale, but they're ridiculously expen$ive.

anymore interest ??

Hi Dave.
Add me to the list!

great to have you with us Richard

Part of the campaign background!

hmmm very interesting

I am softening to this concept. I dont care for bond, but planes in movies, like trains in movies, is something I do enjoy.

If this goes, and if I finish, I will be proposing a Jacky Chan movie campaign.
