That said the opening bars of Ron Goodwins theme tune to BoB still make me grin like a Cheshire cat!!!........ Repeat please....

I would have to recommend dark blue world as well, just got it for christmas. I don't think it is in print anymore so if you are interested in getting a copy amazon had a bunch new in package last time i checked. Love BoB as well and I think it will remain a classic for flight enthusiasts for a long time to come because all the more modern films are relying on heavy use of cgi and the flight scenes look terribly unrealistic despite the detailed "eye candy" visuals they produce. The Blue Max would be another good one. Most of the flying is real and they even reproduced some of the german aircraft specifically for the film.
