Most everyone has listed the majority of my collection, or the ones on
my short list to purchase. However...

One film I highly recommend is the recent Czech flick "Dark Blue
World". Excellent film, some re-hashed clips from "Battle of Britain"
and "Memphis Belle", but some great new footage too.

Other flying films (or films with flying clips) that I can think of
include:

Tora, Tora, Tora
Forever Young
Fighter Squadron
Dragonfly Squadron
Apocolypse Now
Blue Thunder
Flight of the Intruder
Men with Wings
Dawn Patrol
Empire in the Sun
Air Force

Hi all,

I'm trying to put together some kind of plan to increase our EAA chapter
membership. To that end, I would like to pick everyone's brains for their
favorite big screen movie that involves airplanes, either main to the plot
or of any background significance. Examples would be like "Flying Tigers"
with John Wayne or "Indiana Jones and the Search for the Holy Grail".

Thanks in advance,
