Whilst on the subject of JB movies, what about the scene where the helo is chasing a car around a multistory carpark? A helo flying in a confined space? Can someone work that one out?

mini,

Which Bond film are you thinking of? That scene doesn't immediately spring to mind...

Are you sure that you're not thinking of the modern remake of the 'Italian Job'? You even started a thread about it last July...



As for whether or not helis can fly in tunnels, here's a previous discussion. The short answer is yes!

Bravo,

Italian Job, that's the one, thanks for the reminder...

The old grey matter isn't what it used to be

Hats off to the pilot, regardless of the "theory" it looks like a real handful.

Not quite full scale, but it does prove something like it MIGHT work. But you won't catch me trying.

It worked fine for me. I think the summary of the video is the bond stunt would work if we switched to carboard blades.
