Nice article in latest Air and Space magazine on the movie. Story of the
Lafayette Escadrille. It tells what actual aircraft were used in the making
of the movie and that one of the pilots used to fly at Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome in NY.
The flying was filmed over the English countryside to look like France during WWI.

Looks like I'll make a trip to the Theater to se it. I think if nothing else the cinematography will be worth it.
