as one understands there are two meanings. FAB as a sort of countersign meant Fully Advised, Briefed- in other words- like Roger, Wilco. another angle was short for Fabulous- and this was endorsed by one of the actors who voiced Scott Tracy. The phrase was used also as the license number of the car used by Lady Penelope which was the Fab-I. and it is understood that the late Jayne Mansfield had this also as a license code plus, of course, Golden State. the Thunderbird car a six wheeled Rolls-Royce was always called the Fab-I, the definite article being used, like THE empress Eugenie! a class act.
According to the Urban Dictionary, "FAB" from the TV show "Thunderbirds" stood for "Full Acknowledgment of Broadcast," the equivalent of 10-4. Gerry Anderson, the producer of "Thunderbirds," was apparently known for these obscure catch phrases.

It was a code phrase meaning- Tracy family inside use: Fully advised, Briefed. it was used int he same sense as (Roger, Wilco) Okay- will comply- or the LAFD cipher always used by the Officer in Charge- Station 5l KMG 365 ( as I recall from Emergency) Inother words the message was verified and action on the way!

Thunderbirds with Vannessa Hudgens is very similar.
Contraction of the word Fabulous, mainly British usage- as in Fab Four- the Beatles ( used absolutely -like the Union Jack as the National Flag!) Fab Four are the Beatles. FAB was used as a code phrase in the Science-fiction show Thunderbirds- it is said to mean Fully-advised- Briefed- and meant the responding squad member was responding to a call, usually a distress call- as the Thunderbirds were a futuristic Rescue Squad- called International Rescue or IR. It was something like _ Roger- Wilco Roger- Yes , Okay- Wilco- Will Comply- Help is on the way! FAB-I is both a custom car on the Thunderbirds ( a Pink six-wheeled Rolls-Royce) and was allegedly the license code number for Jayne Mansfield. As Jayne had several cars, there may have been several FABS. so that"s about the size of it.
Her name is Penelope Creighton-Ward.
The FAB-1 is a custom concept designed and built by Ford Motor Company, based on the Ford Thunderbird. It was custom-made for the movie
Fab is an acronym for Fully-advised, Briefed, rather similar to the Roger, Wilco used by the Air Force- orders confirmed and understood, will comply= the essential meaning. Fab also =with the numeral One is the name of the automobile ( a six wheeled Rolls Royce painted Pink) used by the character Lady Penelope. also, Fab- here meaning Fabulous- was applied to the Beatles ( Fab 4) and the real-life actress Jayne Mansfield had the license plate code FAB-1 Golden State on her cars.
"FAB" on Thunderbirds is short for "Fully Acknowledged and Briefed." It is a term used by the International Rescue team to indicate that a message or instruction has been understood and will be acted upon accordingly.
Gotta be someone from the Tunderbirds right, I think it is m'Lady.No I think it is from 77 Sunset strip. Lady Penelope's car is FAB1, so Thunderbirds
'Fab' was a 1960's abbreviation for the word 'Fabulous' and along with 'Groovy' was a popular word at the time. It was included in the series Thunderbirds as the phrase 'F. A. B.' to replace the more usual 'Roger, over and out,' which was used to end radio transmissions. Originally 'F. A. B.' had no meaning but after many enquiries from viewers the series producers decided that it was an acronym for "Fully Advised and Briefed."
