“Me262” Movie Takes Flight!

The rumors you may have heard are true. A movie that chronicles the hunt for the first operational jet fighter, the Me262, is scheduled to begin shooting in August in South Carolina. It is being produced by Forbesfilm, an Independent Film Production Company that has completed a number of Westerns and Civil War films over the past five years.

If you would like to be involved in this project in any way, or if you would simply like more information, please visit the production company website:

Take a good look at the website. Plenty of "straight to video" B-grade stuff. Also, the site is pretty much just asking for investors for the film, looking to build a flying ME-262 to use.
Can you say, "pipe dream"? :roll:

I know the Collings has a 262 they were working on, should be done by now.

Correction to the above post: We are looking for full scale mock ups made of wood and canvas - NOT Flight ready to use in the film.

Yes!! We are definitely looking for investors! We are also looking for people who may want to be involved in different areas as well...

Thank You!!
