(1964) - Secret Agent 007 has just come face to face with one of the most notorious villains of all time. And now he'll have to outwit and outgun this powerful tycoon to prevent him from cashing in on a devious scheme to infiltrate Fort Knox - and obliterate the world economy!
This is one of four scale models of the LOCKHEED US VC-140B JET STAR that was used for the film. This model was returned to Lockheed after the production finished and was given to a company executive. The plane ended up in an antique shop where it was purchased by a private collector. The Ian Fleming® Foundation purchased this scale model from that collector. Notice that the two sides of the plane are decorated differently so the same model can be used to represent two different planes.
This is the actual front end of the fuselage used in the film for taxiing shots of the plane on the tarmac. It was cut off from the rest of the plane in later years.
