But it is a Bf108!!


Not forgetting VonRyan's Express!

IIRC they had rockets as well. Not bad for a light trainer.

said, the chances of getting a REAL russian plane for the film
would be pretty slim!

"Ice Station Zero" - a flight of four (?) MiG-21 models turns into a
real Phantom as it overflies the submarine.

I have a photo from 1981, holding that MiG 21 model (there was
actually only one - the flight of four was only a flight of one,
copied several times). Its quite large, perhaps 30" long or a bit
more. The original model is in a storeroom today in the San Diego
Aerospace Museum.



Also didn't Donald
Pleasence get shot after James Gardner crashed theirs in 'The
Great Escape'?

I thought that was a Bucker Bu181 Bestmann (or a derivative), but I
might be wrong.

As Captain Tenneal would say, "Well, you're wrong." (Sticking
my neck out here) I think its a 108. Dern few Bestmanns around.
Anyone know for sure?
