Forever Young 1992
While most of the small amount of aircraft action features footage of
a full size B25 aircraft, the beginning of the film features a short
sequence of a bad/crash landing done in miniature. I'm not exactly sure
who did the Miniature FX but I am guessing that it was Peter Chesney's
Image Special Effects Company as one of the crew is Larry Jolly a well
known movie radio control model pilot.
