Two *OLD* Aviation Movies

Anyone mention the 1930 Howard Hughs movie "Hells Angels"? The effort to make this movie was part of the Leonardo Decaprio movie "Aviator". The story line is pretty iffy but the air to air camera work, not to mention the flying models is wonderful - especially so for the time period the movie was made. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0020960/?ref_=fn_tt_tt_9. Unsure how to stream that.

Another good one from the era is the 1927 "Wings" staring a young Gary Cooper and the "It Girl" Clara Bow. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0018578/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2. Available on Amazon and YouTube for a fee.
