Edit
Trivia Flight scenes were filmed in replica B-17s using technology known as The Volume (used on The Mandalorian (2019)). The B-17s were suspended 50 ft in the air on a gimbal inside a 360-degree stage of seamless LED panel screens and ceiling. Actors could therefore react to flak explosions, crashes and planes flying in real time as the gimbal simultaneously reacted to scenarios. See more »
