Hi,
I think from the info on the links provided, the planewas at one time a functioning 747, but that after being taken out of service it has been used for training and as a movie/TV prop (with fake "mockup" engines).

I think it resides at some old airbase in England and shows up in alot of movies at times. I believe it was in Casino Royale as the Skyfleet S570 (with some post filming CGI added, if I recall correctly). I've also seen it on"Primeval" and I think "Top Gear" once.

This aircraft showed up in the movie "Golda". It was a speedbump in an otherwise accurate and good war movie.
