Needed a good laugh, so I just started watching 007, You Only Live Twice, the 1967 Bond flick set in Japan. It features everything I enjoy, Japanese scenery and Japanese girls,....
Helicopter action, especially Bell 47-G action (above)...... a Brantly B3, a gyrocopter, and in one part of the movie, an Aerospatielle Llama.......
How's this?? Both helicopters and castles! According to the movie, Bond lands in the chopper at a "secret Ninja training centre north of Tokyo",... in real life, it is the National Treasure and World Heritage ranked Himeji Castle about 400 km SOUTH of Tokyo. Some of the scenes and Hollywood images of Japan are laughable, but hey, it's entertainment, Mr. Bond!
