Raise the Titanic, Titanic

As its the centenary of the Titanic going down along with documentaries and drmatic reconstruction on BBC1 and ITV, I'd thought post these screen dumps from my iTunes library as I had bought Raise the Titanic. Sadly I watched the film as a kid before reading the book and would have liked the inclusion of the stand off between the SEALs and the Russian marines in the film and also make Richard Jordan's Dirk Pitt character as Clive Cussler did, ex USAF major rather than ex Naval intel.

Though good to see the classic Navy SH-3H in the movie, supporting the USS Denver.






The two Hueys (204 and 205) decked out as the Russian airframes reminded me of the OPFOR JUH-1M and JUH-1H used at the NTC






And hadn't forgotten Cougar's S-61N in Titanic delivering the old lady and her granddaughter to the salvage vessel in the beginning of the movie. I knew the then VP of ops for Cougar who provided to A/C for the producer
