Anyone else seen the movie, Casino Royale?
It is nice to see many Virgin 744s, and 346s and Sir Richard Branson himself,
but what the heck a CSA airplane doing in MIA?
I saw the OK plane twice. What airport was this scene shot?

There has been couple of threads on this topic, the scene was filmed at PRG hence the CSA 737-400, CSA A310, and Travel Service 737. Incidently I'm pretty sure the Virgin 747-400 that they show landing is animated.

I think it was PRG, not MIA and i think this has been discussed here before on a previous thread.


come fly with me

Thanks for the info, only if I could waited another couple of hours I would have got the answers on my own.
Dec 06 American Cinematographer magazine has an article on the film and there it says it was in fact Prague and a field in Surrey England.
Thanks again.

I noticed it looked kind of bloated.

Despite the fact they filmed the Miami scenes in Prague, I noticed some impressive attention to detail. When Bond is at the dead body exhibition in Miami, this was based on the real-life "Bodies" exhibition that's currently in town. Also, while Bond chases the fake cop into the airport, take a look at the sign just outside the terminal reading "Terminal J". The fact that Concourse J has not been opened yet (so no one knows what it's like inside), and that it's supposed to look European, could explain away some of the inconsistencies in the airport scene.

They did shoot exteriors and The Bodies exhibition in Miami. The airfield stuff was shot in Prague with the exteriors of the tricked out 747 shot in England. Edit it all together, add some computer animation and you got it.

When you said "wrong airplane" I thought you were talking about the Skyfleet.

uuuuuuugly.

(And why would they premiere it at an airport other than where it was built?)
