Might try “Strategic Air Command”, a 1955 Jimmy Stewart film. Lots of great air, ground and cockpit shots of B-36, B-47, KC-97 and C-124s. Plot line a bit weak, but the aircraft are great!!!

You mean Colonel James M. Stewart, USAF (R)?

He served as Air Force Reserve commander of Dobbins Air Reserve Base in the early 1950s, and was promoted to Brigadier General on July 23, 1959.

Yep… the same guy… also flew 20 combat missions over Germany in B-24s in 1944/45.
