Default Luftwaffe Fighter Pilot at War .was Aviation Movies - your top 5?

I don't know of any movies, I do own a book though titled Heaven Next Stop,
A Luftwaffe Fighter Pilot at War by Gunther Bloemertz. A personal story of
one of the Abbeville Boys who flew FW 190s.

One of those books that you start to read after dinner and before you know
it it is the early hours of the morning.

Well worth the read, amazing stories.

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.



Are there no good German ones ?
If they could make a superb submarine epic like 'Das Boot' they must have
had the potential to make some good aviation stuff.
