Iron Maiden - Aces High: http://youtu.be/1MAxINE0LUM

What movie are the clips in this home made Iron Maiden video taken from? I know, I know, I should have seen it already. I don't watch much boob tube.

Thanks fellas ~S~

Description from your link:

A video for Iron Maiden's seriously epic song "Aces High" from clips from the movie "Battle of Britain", in tribute to all those who served as airmen in the RAF and RCAF during the Second World War.

Duuuh...I should have looked there, thanks. I was blinded by the airplane action and wailing guitar leads.

I'm going to rent that flick very soon.

Thanks again

I think I'll check that one out too.  It looks like a good movie.

I'm 41! I don't watch much TV. Put it this way; i just saw pulp fiction a few years ago. What a hyped up letdown.

I spend my free time outdoors: harvesting firewood, hunting, fishing, hiking with my dog... And aces high!

I'm definitely renting this though.

Hey we're the same age. Unlike you however, I don't spend nearly as much time outside as I should...

Battle of Britain is a movie you should own, not rent.

Was a 1960's flick and I am pretty sure that "Greebo's" father had quite a bit to do with it concerning the RC aircraft in it, such as the Stuka's, exploding and such.

Tally Ho wot

I so much wanted Two Minutes to Midnight to start playing after that. Pavlovian response.

If you've never seen Battle of Britain maybe you've never seen Twelve o'clock High. Another must see.
