The film ends with the take-off of the El Al aircraft taking Eichmann to face trial in Jerusalem. In real life this aircraft was a turboprop-powered Bristol Britannia. However, the Britannia aircraft had a very short operational life, due to passenger demand for jets, and none were available for the movie. A Boeing 707 was therefore used instead.
