Nice video Peter.

I was especially interested to see a machine in the background of several shots that a company I used to work for built for Boeing more than 12 years ago! The machine was built by a different division of the company to the one I worked for but it was built at our premises as they didn't have the space to build it at their main building. It can be seen in the opening scene and in a couple of others and it was used to rotate fuselage sections along their long axis so that they could assemble the various parts together. I believe it was originally built for either the B777 or B727 but could have been adapted for other uses by now.
