"Fighter Pilot" IMAX

The making of "Fighter Pilot"

I found this whilst browsing. Anyone been involved? - it looks quite hectic!!

No Brit a/c though, a few Kraut tonadoes, je pense.

I saw something once about the fiftieth (?) anniversary of the Sweedish Airforce. They did a lot of filming in the crew rooms and I swear they had all been furnished from IKEA.

It looked pretty good actually.

I've seen it.

Just turn your mind off and enjoy the stunning camera work. Great pictures of jets flaring, formation work, AAR, etc. Not so good on the drama of a "newbie" learning that not only is he a fighter pilot, but part of a team............yada, yada, yada.

Dear all,
it was filmed during RED FLAG 03-4 during which 800 NAS deployed 6 SHar FA2 ac to the Ex in Aug 03, during which they played red air alongside the aggressors. Shame there was no coverage of the SHar, esp as we utilised Canadian KC-130 for AAR.

Cheers

HC

A lot of the fottage taken from the air was done at the range south of Mountain Home Idaho.

The film can be seen in its full glory at The Luxor in Vegas. Worth every penny.
