Character mistake: When Bond is being flown to Baltimore, Pussy calls her assistant Mai Lee twice on the plane: once in person, then telling the co-pilot to give her instructions. However, when they disembark, she calls her Mai Lai.
Character mistake: Goldfinger is holding a S&W .38 in his plane. Bond says (in his explanation about shooting guns in planes), "That's a Smith and Wesson .45."
Continuity mistake: When Pussy Galore's Flying Circus lands at Blue Grass Field, the blonde girl we see getting out of the first Piper is not among the group of pilots who report to Pussy in the next shot.
James Bond: A martini. Shaken, not stirred.
Trivia: Goldfinger's first name is Auric. Au is the chemical symbol for gold on the periodic table of elements.
Question: Q demonstrated the switches for the left and right front-wing machine guns - why is the "right" control on the left and vise versa?
Chosen answer: They're not. Q was just indicating to Bond that these were the wing machine guns, he wasn't stating which was which.
