awesome! This is an awesome film about the red flag excercise that happens every year @ nellis afb nevada. the sounds on this thing are phenomenal when viewed with a bose or similar system. my only complaint is the picture is a little jumpy at times due to formatting to fit the screen. the film has been formatted from imax to dvd....it won't be seamless. if you have ever been in the AF this is a no brainer purchase. excellent addition to my dvd collection!
Fighter Pilot - Operation Red Flag Great videography and narration. Excellent footage of a wide-range of uses for jet fighters. Highly recommended to all!
Great inside look at the Air Force This is a short 40 minute IMAX movie that I saw at the Udvar-Hazy Air and Space Museum. I really enjoyed learning more about the Air Force and how they train. It is a great look at the sophistication of their machines and training programs. It's a little disorienting, but the effect on IMAX is awesome. It would probably be only 4 stars on a regular screen. Highly recommended.
One of the best! I currently have about 23 IMAX DVDs, and Fighter Pilot ranks among my favorites. It's a look into the intense training and responsibility given to the pilots, and a having a seat in the jet is thrilling. You get a handle on how these jets, under the guidance of an experienced pilot, are formidable weapons. You also get a feel for the intense multi-tasking the pilots must do during combat. I definitely have a greater respect for these pilots. This film is one of few that I can watch multiple times and enjoy it just as much each timne. I am using a 7 x 9 foot screen, and if you want to get the most of the IMAX film techniques, this is the way to go.
A cool glory pilot flick I liked the power and technology. I dislike the notion that this power and technology is available to George Warmonger Bush for invasion into sovereign countries based on lies and deceipt.
