I think I'll go with Octopussy's opening with "Corkey" Fornof flying that
AcroStar Jet.  Don't get me wrong -- they are all good.  He is from here, but
I never met him and he has done many movies -- 3 or 4 Bond movies are the most
notable and a bunch of others.  Stunt flying is very dangerous and his dad was
killed during a stunt when one of the wings of his plane came off.  Back to
the above-mentioned movie, that was a neat little jet plane and one of my
brothers-in-law built a motorized one that looked like the movie version in
his garage, later finishing it outdoors and it flew.


Regards,

Roger
