In the latest issue of MotorTrend. No idea what it is. I see a C-47 in the background so I'm assuming it's at some sort of museum.

EDIT: !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! Apparently it's a 747 that was modified for use in Casino Royale as a prototype. Interesting.

I would have said B-52, based on the engine pod, but the mount is slightly off on the leading edge and the wing mounted wheel is definately not a B-52... not sure...

That is 747 G-BDXJ at the Top Gear Test Track.

It is tarted up now a movie prop.

me either apparently.... *looks at how many GB on his home network storage is devoted to Top Gear and Tope Gear-related files* Or maybe, I'm just paying too much attention to the cars...

The Skyfleet S570 from Casino Royale is probably one of its most well known roles (scale model + digital compositing).
