Nice to see a movie using real aircraft and not CGI where possible. Obviously the crash scenes are but even they are well done. Great F4 footage Paul.

Not yet mate. I'm in lovely PNG for 12 more sleeps but I do hope to see it at the movies when I get back. Must be a cracker movie if there's F-4's in it

Ya beat me to it Tony! I saw it last night with the good lady wife - she in fact suggested it! I'm sure we could all pick holes in this and that - those who work up in the rounded front end even more so I guess, but I found it pretty entertaining. Of course the ATSB were made out to be the "villain" a bit, but every film needs a bad guy. Well acted, well directed and very entertaining. Nothing wrong with highlighting a spectacularly brilliant bit of airmanship and brilliant teamwork by all the crew. I give it 4.5 First Class inflight meals out of 5! Oh and HRT Paul - there is the added bonus of some F-4 porn!

Didn't realise the ATSB featured in it.....if they had, you can be sure the draft report wouldn't have been released yet..
