Thunderbirds are GO !

Can any of you kiddies programmes Nurds tell me what F.A.B. stands for.

I thought 'Funderbirds Are Braw' but I'm sure one of you know different.

it doesnt stand for anything, just another word that the maker, gerry anderson thought would be good instead of saying, "over and out "they say fab.

As the others have said, it has no real acronym.

F.A.B. was simply a way of saying "understood, over and out".

I believe in the 1990's someone came up with something that may have been revealed in the Thunderbirds comic that ran at the time, but no definition was ever given in the TV show.
