Below is a link which has a few interesting BOAC promotional films, one dedicated to their 707-420.
I always had a bit of a problem accepting that the take off flap setting of 30deg. as outlined in the "Reference" document for the 707-320\420 was a bit too much.
After watching this film, it quite clearly shows visually and verbally that the take off flap setting is in fact 30deg.
Later models of the 707 had flap settings of 14deg. and 17deg. because of a small change to the wing tips and additional wing leading edge slats.
The film is presented in 3 parts and for some reason it wants to start with part 2 first. The other parts can be selected from the right side.
