The Great Waldo Pepper.
Awesome. Seems like when I was a kid that movie was on TV pretty often.
Watched it every time I could.

I vote for Never Cry Wolf. Not strictly a flying movie, but beautiful scenes of a Beaver in some beautiful country. Not sure but I believe the flying scenes were filmed above Skagway- kind of between Skagway and Whitehorse in the winter. Have a mechanic buddy who helped prepare that Beaver for its film role, can't remember where he said they were specifically filmed-but pretty sure he told me it was in that area. Looks like it too from what I've seen.

He told me that they were stripping the paint to prepare for a different paint job for the movie. Apparently when the producer (director?) saw the plane partially stripped of paint he stopped the process and said it looked perfect.

They also got a waiver to fly it without an engine cowling and scrubbed the sides with used coffee grounds to make it look "oilier".

Anyway, beautiful shots, and great acting by Brian Dennehy as "Rosie" the bush pilot.
