Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks looking to film new aviation blockbuster in Lincolnshire | Lincolnshire Live
American aviation advisers to a new Second World War blockbuster series by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks are visiting Lincolnshire to get a flavour of our historic USAAF connections.
Masters of the Air is a ten-eposide mini-series which forms the third intalment in their triology after Band of Brothers and Pacific. This time the story focuses on the American daylight bomber raids over occupied territory, launched from Norfolk and Suffolk. Scenes will be shot at UK locations yet to be decided but officials here want to suggest that Lincolnshire also gets in on the action, given our county's strong wartime links with the USAAF.....
Don Miller, author of Masters of the Air, on which the new series is based, and scriptwriter John Orloff will be touring key aviation sites in Lincolnshire linked to the USAAF on Friday, February 24, in a tour organised by Aviation Heritage Lincolnshire........
