Two unusual Bond vehicles feature in this film and these are the Bede BD-5J Acrostar Jet, holder of the Guinness record for the world's smallest jet aircraft at just 12 foot long. It was flown by the stunt flying ace, J.W. "Corkey" Fornoff who flew the Jet through an open hangar at more than 150mph.

In the film, James Bond uses the tiny plane hidden in a horsebox, to escape from Cuba

Look up and you’ll see the jet in the ceiling of the museum, which was acquired by the museum from the Ian Fleming Foundation.
