nice idea for a thread Vikalp11 - as I try and catch most plane related movies! But VC has covered most of them.
Slight edit to Gaurav's title - its "Those magnificent Men in their Flying Machines" (one of my all time favorites too!)
Another old one "The Flight of the Phoenix" (has an aeromodelling reference)

Thanks king,
I guess I have seen that movie (the flight of the Phoenix) 5-6 years ago! It was telecasted on Star Movies.

Look closer
Govind Nihlani's Vijeta, my all time favourite, reason, flew Kiran in my training days, went to same squadron as in vijeta , had fire on take off and jumped out exactly like that. More than anything, it was a real movie not some Hollywood mumbo jumbo
Gusty's Hangar and Introduction.

A Good pilot will practice until he gets it right,
A Great pilot will practice until he can't get it wrong.
