The ship Marc Wolfe flew through the building was an Air Hanson ship but cannot remember the reggie. I think some pipework was put on the front of the ship for the scooping up of the wheelchair scene too.
Details on the ship used in 'For Your Eyes Only' appear in post 44 on page 3 and in post 472 of page 24. The craft is question (G-BAKS) was the personal mount of Lord Dulverton.

BBCA & BBUY popped up later in my life with Aeromega BBCA as itself and BBUY as HRAY (Then HMPH)
Then this shot (not very clear) may bring back some memories:

And an image of Dennisimo's BBUY from her Air Anglia days:

I love the 206 and still enjoy seeing/hearing them in the skies over Essex.
Don't really enjoy flying the 206 anymore (there are simply too many better craft out there) but she is (for me) one of the most nostalgic birds in rotary history. In the 60's and 70's just about anyone who was anybody had one and I thoroughly enjoy viewing images of JetRangers past!
