Avro Vulcan

The Royal Air Force makes a test run with their Vulcans, armed with nuclear missiles. With a clever plan, SPECTRE´s pilot Angelo Palazzi hijacks the bomber, kills the crew and lands in the ocean. Largo kills him inside the plane, because Palazzi wanted too much money. The SPECTRE guards take the nuclear missiles and cover the plane. Later, Bond finds it.
