Unfortunately not a rotary-wing film. Just watched a DVD called "Les Chevaliers du Ciel", about the frog air force Mirage pilots - spectacular flying scenes, and nothing apparently done with blue screen, apart from one shoot-down shot.
The actors are really in the machines,:yuk: shoulder straps flopping around with negative g, faces getting pulled down,:eek: and some wonderful low flying sequences.:p
Couldn't understand the french dialogue, and the english subtitles were so bad (done in Indonesia) that I turned them off, so I have no idea what the story was about! But the flying is a hoot.:ok:
