[Fubijaakr]

The Blue Max.

 

[reepicheep]

12 O'Clock High for best movie overall. 633 Squadron & Strategic Air Command for the best to look at.

It still kills me everytime he opens the safe and takes the cowboy hat out.

And that's not just a C-150. That's a C-150 Aerobat, baby. A freakin' 150 Aerobat. That rocks.

Where do I find the soundtrack? I must download it and put it on repeat on my Nano.

The Great Waldo Pepper

All great movies, ... the best... a tie between 12 O'clock high and the High and the Mighty.

Also - John Wayne in Flying Tigers or Apocalypse Now in different catagories.
