CHANTILLY, Va. -- Capt. John Stratton signs a movie poster at the premier of the new IMAX film "Fighter Pilot: Operation Red Flag." He served as the star of the film. The movie chronicles his experience as he participates in his first Red Flag exercise. The film made its premier Dec. 2 at the National Air and Space Museum here. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt.

> ... none of this in a fake cockpit in a studio ...

So how did they get the POV air shots?

IMAX cam in a custom hard-point pod?

Custom rig in the back seat of a 2-seater?

(IMAX cameras are not small, due to the huge
65mm negative format.)

Red Flag in IMAX format!! Will they pass out barf bags at the entrance to the theater? Expect lots of nausea and dizzyness.

I'll have to drive at least an hour to see it, but I will.

"There is no hot-dogging in the Air Force,"

This is true, because hot-dogging is reserved for the best. There is plenty of hot-dogging in the Navy.

Red Flag? What about Green Flag, Checker Flag, or Silver Flag Alpha? Or the little heard of Desert Flag?

I was at Nellis from 1984 - 1994. Got to see all the Flags coming through. Even more fun, got to sit in Blackjack and watch the Eagle drivers get eaten alive by the F-5s.
