RE: Thunderbirds

Grant Wray
FAB was simply an alternative to AOK. (FAB doesn't mean anything, FAB was
just a buzzword of the time)
In Cpt. Scarlet, they used SIG (Spectrum Is Green)
They didn't seem to have one in UFO.
Anyone have a list of radio call signs / codewords used in GA productions?
Grant.

On Sunday 10 Sept 3000 the BBC ran the Thunderbirds episode about
Sidewinder
falling in the pit (Pit of Peril?).
What does "F.A.B." stand for? It is said in the story as a reply to radio
messages and seems to mean "Understood" or similar.
Part of the episode was live-action (the early bits that showed African
wildlife).
It was quite exciting.
I think that Sidewinder would have been more stable on the move with 6
legs
rather than 4.
