Vickers FunBus is an oblique link to the Vickers FB5 'Gunbus' of earlier years: http://www.dartfordarchive.org.uk/te...ickers_fb5.htm

..and the VC10K was a renowned party machine before the stupidity of those who should have known better robbed the squadrons of their individual identities....

But the FunBus took me to Hawaii 4 or 5 times, for example. Not to mention Cocoa Beach, Dayton, Pease and countless other fun spots long before the joys of sandy tents (which fortunately I never suffered).
