"This is a personal list, and as such, won't please everyone. I accept that, but I wanted to look at the films that have best represented flying for me over the years. I've also excluded helicopters in exchange for a festival of fixed wings. But as a person who loves aircraft and flying of all kinds, these are the ones that made me feel the need.

Peter Jackson…oh yaay…wonder if he can 3 hours of flying with no action in to screw the classic movie up. |

I recommend 'Wings' (from the 1920's), especially the special features of the making of it. |

Not a bad list, not in order I would put them. Top would be Battle of Britain |

battle of britain and memphis belle would be at the top for me. I would love to still see The Blue Max though i dont think though there have been much films about fighter pilots in the later part of ww2 are there – that is, say the mustang pilots during the allied bombings ? There is Red Tails but what else? its a subject that could easily have more films |
