This has got to be up there for me:



Just watched it for the first time in decades, pure de Havilland Mosquito bliss and some of the best flying music of all time.

Where else but in 633 Squadron will you see Mike 'trouble at' knicker factory' Baldwin piloting a Mosquito?

Memphis Belle, especially the pre-dawn and take-off scenes.

Another one - don't know the name - about a B-24 that missed its airfield in Libya and carried on into the desert and the 'surviving' crew turned out to be ghosts...

Cheers based on the true story of the Lady B Goode (that you can still see on google earth) ...horrible place to end up.

I know it is a bit of a crap film, but some of 'Pearl Harbor' was good - i.e the Doolittle raid.

There is a film specifically about the Doolittle raid but I can't remember the title. It's pretty good, though, understated. A sort of American Dambusters.

30 Seconds over Tokyo.

I take it they pad it out a bit?

Capricorn One - about a faked moon landing and subsequent cover-up.
