Default Aviation Movies - your top 5?

"Paul Catley" wrote in message
...

It's been a long time since you've seen Flight of the Phoenix too - it isn't
in black & white

1. The Dambusters
2. Tora! Tora! Tora!
3. Battle of Britain
4. Dark Blue World
5. Apocalypse Now (for the helicopter scenes)

Actually, I wish I'd voted for The Right Stuff and Flight of the Phoenix, but
I compiled my list without reference to the rest of the thread Must admit
that I like Strategic Air Command too, despite it being a dreadful flag-waving
exercise.


Can I change my vote? The Blue Max was on telly this afternoon. I hadn't seen
it before. The flying sequences are marvellous, particularly the "under the
bridge" scene, in what were no doubt very valuable Fokker Triplane replicas
