I want to stock up on some aviation themed videos. Would anyone want to
volunteer their top five aviation movies? Mine a

1. Top Gun.
2. Angels One 5.
3. Memphis Bell.
4. Air America.
5. The Blue Max.

Most aviation related movies have a war theme but there must be
interesting non military movies or documentaries with realistic flying
action.


I like warbirds

1. Battle of Britain. Lots of Spitfires and Hurricanes.
2. 12 O'clock High. B17's doing what B17's do.
3. The Dam Busters. Real Lancasters, Barnes Wallis, a true story, say no
more!
4. 633 Squadron. Lots of Mosquito action, plus John Mellion. Trivia from
IMDB- Cliff Robertson, an accomplished pilot, wanted to buy one of the
Mosquitoes after filming had finished, as he was so impressed with the type.
He was not permitted to do this but he later bought a Spitfire Mk IX which
he owned until the late 1990s.
5. Con Air. Just a cool movie set on an aeroplane.
