Thank you for your patience with me and pointing that out. I feel
really Homer Simpsonish at the moment "DOH!" because I've just
discovered all of this from continuing on with my reading in the book
starting at page 78 and SHADO headquarters.

Next time I'll read a book through before coming up with the
questions. The book mentions exactly what I was wondering about, I
just didn't notice it the first time I flipped through really quickly.

I never realised there were so many different transports. I'm going
to have to pay closer attention when watching the episodes again. For
example I don't recall the helicopter with the big turbines/motors?
although I'm sure I saw it at some point. One of the mobiles is
supposes to travel on water, did they ever show that in an episode?
