2. Sully
La Hazañon the Hudson, It is possibly one of the best and más realistic movieíg buttséaviation numberón of the world.

For mí, It is a work of art about accidentséprisoners. Made by the famous ex-pilot, director and actor Enrique Piñeuro, this skiníwhich narrates disturbing details of the missing AerolíArgentine nea LAPA until reaching the fatí1 accident at Aeroparque.
Bastante téconical and detailed, like in the podíto be less when directed by a pilot who livedó the story firsthand, highly recommended, you can not stop staring at her.

a clácomedy episode that is worth seeing several times. This skiníbutt, If the case were to come, it would be almost incredibleíble que jamáif you have seen it, tea hasá reír from beginning to end with his mockery or nonsense about aviationón. One skiníwhat fulfills 38 años, but jamás passá Fashion.

Bonus Track
to mentionón special for all these moviesínumbers and series, which are very good or have very cool AvGeek parts, that alsoéI recommend that you see them. A long list next to 10 above, así make time to see them all, ¡son 22 recommendations!
I love airport alert, Mayday air catastrophes and especially the Dubai airport are my favorites
We are totally agreed!
Missing Disney Pixar movie AIRPLANES…when you watch the bonus material on Blu-ray or DVD, there is a documentary by an aviation expert who was from the team of creators and writers; Jeffrey M. Howard.
It is one of the few movies that contains true aviation data, maneuvers, types of planes, etc, Besides being fun and it is a good way to inspire a child with aviation.
Thanks for the comment!
I was looking for what I would have to see now that I got into this beautiful world,and it was nice to realize that I saw most <3
the mini series of 2 caps of the Spanair accident from 2008, called Flight IL 8714, It is very good and it is fully aeronautical, I don't think I saw it published. Found on youtube.
Good recommendations and I am going to see what I am missing
Greetings!
Thanks Camm!
The movie premiered on Amazon Prime Video last week 7500, a thriller about a flight hijack in Europe, I saw it last night and it turned out very good, especially since the movie is shot from the cockpit of the plane, I recommend it, greetings Nicolás.
Thanks Bruno, pity not to have Amazon Prime, but I will keep it in mind.
I also found the film on the Cuevana page, don't miss it, I know you will like it, Cheers
Hello there
About airplane movies, I've been looking for one for a long time in which a pilot took aerial photographs and discovers that due to a manufacturing error, your camera film could show where an earthquake would occur. It must be from the '70s
And there was a series set in the cold war, where flights were made over Cuba in a Lockheed U2
If you can help me with that…
Greetings and recognition for your work…!!!
Thanks Nestor, i haven't heard about it, but it sounds very interesting.
Midway!
His sequences of the air fights and the sound were excellent.! Greetings
The sequel, from airports
I have not seen, I'm going to look for her.
Sorry for the inconvenience, but… I have a curiosity that, on the other hand, I am not able to find on the Internet. On Spanish television, in nineteen eighty-six, I think, could see a series on the principles of aviation, that captivated me. I am not an expert, nor is it a specific question for that, but… It was a beautiful way to start an adventure, at a time and with very limited means. Hence my fascination and the merit of it. Would you know something about that series? I think it was called Flaunders. Ah iiiiiiiiiii. Other movie :Con air, con Nicholas Cage.
Hello there! Very good question, I could not tell you, but I promise to investigate.
Always (Richard Drayfuss) 1984
Mercy mission
Air America
Final countdown (USS Nimitz viaja a 1941)
Buen dawns early lights (B52’s)
Two crazy people from the air (Palito Ortega)
Beyond the sun (Jorge Newbery)
Good list!
Concorde, airport 79
Good both!
Could be pushing tin (the life of air traffic controllers) very good, Hard to Kill 2 and one that also seems good to me is Knights of the Air, where you see the beginning of military aviation in the second world war…
Hard to Kill 2 its a classic, what an ILS is introduced to the world.
Other: Blue Thunder (Relampago Azul) I loved it. Then the tv series came out
I'm going to look for her!
They could be added to the list Air Force One with Harrison Ford and Flight Plan with Jodie Foster ?
Air Force One fully, Flight plan I did not like much…
Great Comedy Airplane 1 & 2 in the 80s with Leslie Nielsen one of the main actors who became popular years later with The Naked Gun. Airplane 1 when flying from LA to Chicago with a B707 that its engines sounded like turboprops … Airplane 2 landing on the moon….
Yes, for all of us who are fans of aviation there are humorous movies, drama, romance and fiction for all tastes.
Totally! Aunque Airplane 2 I did not like it so much.
I think I am missing: Up in the Air
Yes, I will put it as an extra, although it is more the life of a traveler, what about airplanes, what do we like the most hahaha.
