Would a seaplane take off from an aerodrome?
@mtm "An aerodrome is the part of an airport that is used by aircraft" says wiki
I have checked the Aerodrome's Facebook and they usually have seaplanes on that landing strip.
No Time To Falter ;-)

Hawkins’s Bond bonanza resulted from her stunt background in shows like Fast and Furious. A contact put her forward when it emerged the Bond crew were looking for a female driver.
“I had to go through an audition where I had to drift around a few cones and stuff,” Hawkins said. “There are a lot of similarities between stunt driving and racing, but it is also very different. Like racing, you have to be absolutely millimetre perfect. “Everybody expects Bond to be spectacular. Everybody eagerly anticipates the car chases. I can assure you it is spectacular. You won’t want to miss it.”
[...] “I was a small part in a massive production,” she said. “The stunt coordinator welcomed me to the team, which was amazing. It is very difficult to get into movies and to gain trust. It was a big honour. I went to some incredible locations and was one of the first people to drive the new Land Rover Defender. On the back of that I’m now a Land Rover ambassador.”
If they had waited any longer to get things moving then the actual production would be in jeopardy and who knows what could've happened to the film at that point.
Now it's just a waiting game. Wishing good health and safety to all of you.
Good words!
He said exactly : "They filmed the sequence with this car and after looking at the images they discovered that ultimately they did not like this car very much. Rather than re-film the sequence, we digitally reconstructed an Aston Martin DBS".
Very good point.

And now for one upcoming project because I just can’t help myself! Can you tell me specifically about the choice to return for No Time To Die? It’s very enticing to bring back familiar characters, but you always want your character to come back with purpose. So are you able to tease anything about the role that made you say, ‘Yeah, it’s necessary for me to return to that character?’
WALTZ: You’ll see when you see it. [Laughs] You’ll see what it is when you see it. It would’ve been out by now had it not been for the virus. So they pushed it into November. I was disappointed too because I didn’t want to dodge questions. But we’ll see. No, it was necessary. It was great and let’s talk again about it after you’ve seen it.
That is fascinating. I know the BLACKBIRD rig has been gaining popularity but it's interesting to hear that they simply just swapped out one car for another.
Covid-19 does sound like a plan by Blofeld on second thoughts.
In other news, Waltz is out pimping his new Quibi streaming show. He even got an Instagram! That's right, the most obtuse, serious and dismissive man is on the gram.....
@Contraband any chance you know if the interview is available? Snaps from the interview below:
Is the BLACKBIRD rig something similar to what they used when they shots scenes for the film on the Atlantic Road last year?
They look very similar but that just looks like a POV or a following camera car to me.
Here is the Blackbird:
Looks a bit like a Caterham. :-?
Was thinking that too. The one above, on set, definitely is.
That's what it was used for in that sequence (at least according to newspaper reports). I just wondered if it might have been used for something similar to the Blackbird as well.
@Pierce2Daniel Not yet.. I'm on it
@Torgeirtrap Don't think that racing car with the 360 camera system (Bond's eye level and/or POV) is the same as the blackbird
https://dropupload.com/X14/2020-04-01_The_Rake.pdf
Yeah, as @CraigMooreOHMSS pointed out, it doesn't look like it. One seeing the Blackbird though, I couldn't help think about this car.
Thank you!
Waltz spilling absolutely nothing, though I love this quote:

Agh, sorry. With you now. The only thing that would rule it out for me is the lack of motion capture tags on the body. But still, you never know. I've never been up close with a Blackbird or known anyone who has operated one to definitively say, unfortunately.
The film will be released in November. The trend lines are looking much better.
I very cautiously share some of your optimism after reading today.
Oh please, drop the politics.
Yeah, But the new trailer worries me a bit...since they've shown us a lot...trailer-wise, coz they thought April was still the release date. Maybe New Music & one or two new lines might suffice with quick flashes of the old scenes we've already seen.
I'm not sure they would have to reveal much more; but they'd want to edit it and include different music to suit a new marketing approach. Faster. More upbeat. More like an "Eff Yeah, James Bond is back!"
It's from an interview from a cast member of NTTD, related to his role in NTTD. It's fair game.
