Great clip from Wings there low ‘n’ slow. I used to love that series and wish I’d taped it when it repeated in the 1990’s. Was that the full size replica in all those shots or were some shots of models? Only I recall reading the replica was filmed only in the USA but it looked very English/French to me.

I was thinking about the series only the other day, and how it had tainted my opinion of that actor Michael Cochrane who played Gaylion for life. Every time he pops up on TV I think “Oh that awful pompous pilot from Wings again”

Hi Dave, yep thats the flying rep that was filmed by the BBC at Bealton Virginia. They basicaly filmed lots of stock shots and then cut them in as required.
