Much of the Roger Moore 'Spy Who Loved Me' remote control scene was filmed with a full size mock-up. It later stood in the AMH hangar at Fairoaks for a few years gathering dust.

Here is the mock up:



Mock up of AgustaBell 206B JetRanger used by Pinewood Studios during the filming of 'The Spy Who Loved Me' (1977) now stored at the James Bond Museum in Cumbria.

Sorry to bump this one back up but I noticed a little error reading through this great thread.

EOR, the picture you show is not the Stromberg mock up used in filming, it's the hull of G-OBAY (note the low skids) that I sold to the owner of the now closed Cars of the Stars museum in Keswick, Cumbria a few years back....

G-OBAY met an interesting 'end'..worth a Google for those interested

Now I'll get my coat
