Default gliders in movies


schrieb:

Has anyone compiled a list of movies in which gliders appear? I tried
googling, and it turned up some of the obvious names, such as _The
Thomas Crown Affair_ and _The Boy Who Flew With Condors_, but nothing
like a comprehensive listing.

Johan Larson (whose interest in soaring was triggered by a brief scene
in the movie _Wind_)


The Sky Trap
A young glider pilot gets in trouble after disturbing some drug dealers
after an outlanding near the US/Mexican border.
I haven't seen the whole thing but there are only few moments in it
without a glider. Mostly Blanik.

Interestingly
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0348049/ says it's a British
production,
http://movies2.nytimes.com/gst/movie...ml?v_id=129031 says it's
US.
