Although not a war film, the Flight of the Phoenix with Jimmy Stewart was a great flick...I loved those cartridge charge's to start an engine.

+1 for that pick, I love the dogfight visuals, the scene of all the sabres forming up with their contrails behind them still gives me a chill. It has it's cheese moments, but the aerial cinematography was great.

Robtek, I love John Wayne. I love airplanes. But Jet Pilot is maybe the worst John Wayne movie ever! lol. The gal was a babe though .

Flying Leathernecks is a pretty good Wayne airplane movie. Also Flying Tigers. Both full of Hollywood but good.

Here's one I can't place:
Can't think of the name....Korean war movie. Mickey Rooney, William Holden. Holden has a fuel leak after an attack run and is trying to make it back to the coast. Rooney flies a helicopter in to save Holden in the end and they end up trying to escape the NK's through a series of ditches. Anyone?

Dang....now I just need to convince my wife to watch a few flying flicks this weekend.

A few that haven't been mentioned yet (though not necessarily my favorite)

Flyboys

Decent amount of flight scenes, not-so-great story.


The Red Baron


Good but few fight scenes, and apparently lame story (never watched it)

The Final Countdown

So, this modern aircraft-carrier enters some storm which takes it back in time to 1941, and they have the opportunity to stop Pearl Harbor from being attacked. Apparently there were some near-fatal accidents during filming (you can imagine why).

Russian Historical Detective (TV series)

Wish I knew more about this one.

Sky Fighters

Apparently a good film (in French) and from the looks of it, surreal flying scenes

Flight of the Phoenix (remake)

Not great, but fun - I liked it

Battle of Santa Cruz (Japanese Documentary)

Well done animation, but I can't speak Japanese

I don't know what this is, but I believe it's Japanese as well


For those we love(Warning:contains gore)

Good flying scenes, and even bases some effects from wartime footage. Controversial film because it apparently glorifies the Kamikaze suicide attacks.

633 Squadron

Good flying scenes, but lame effects. I don't know how good the movie is.
Anyway, it's also famous for this parody:


Tora Tora Tora

Film about the attack on Pearl Harbor. Good overall, way better than the Bruckheimer/Bay version.

Amelia



Airplane!

Who hasn't seen this one

The Rocketeer

Another Sci-Fi, but it's got interesting flying scenes with a Gee Bee racer.

The Strategic Air Command

With Jimmy Stewart and real B-36s

Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines

Great movie

The Right Stuff

Great film about the early years of the American Space Race

The Great Waldo Pepper

I only vaguely remember seeing this. Apparently it's also a great movie

The Spirit of Saint Louis

Again with Jimmy Stewart. Good film.

That's all I got for now

A couple more:

Hot Shots

Very Funny I didn't like Part Deux though.

Apocalypse Now

It has one of the most memorable flying scenes in movie history, and is also a stellar film. (I've only seen the "Redux" version).
