G-BHUB flew as ‘G-AGIV’ in “Airline” and as mentioned, G-DAKS was ‘G-AGHY’ in the same series

TS423/G-DAKS/N147DC was noted at Shoreham on 20th June 1999 with “Aero Argentinas” titles, during filming of an episode of the TV series “Poirot”.
More recently, in April 2009, it took part in the filming of “Red Tails” at Prague, Czech Republic.

Hits a hill first, stars Kathleen Turner and Michael Douglas, Romancing the Stone. Or jewel in the Nile?
Another film. For you
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082968/trivia
The make and model of the “The Yankee Zephyr” airplane was a US Navy DC-3 cargo plane – Dakota NZ3518. “The Yankee Zephyr” was played by an actual real-life DC-3 plane. It was repainted in United States Army Air Forces (AAF / USAAF) colors for the film and then sunk in Lake Wakitipu near Queenstown in the South Island of New Zealand. The plane was then raised from the lake after principal photography was completed. According to the forum on the ‘Wings Over New Zealand Aviation’ website, the plane was moored at Kelvin Peninsular in Lake Wakatipu for several months after production on the movie was finished. It was floating for a time about 100 meters off the shore under rafts of 44-gallon drums under its wings and fuselage. Jet boaters would jet-ski over the planes wings for fun. The plane was eventually scuttled, scrapped and finally sold but its ZK-BEU cockpit was salvaged and saved.
