Angel Flight Down

at first I had no intention of watching this movie well at first i didnt then i watched the last half hour of it and it really held my attention the next day it was on again. this is a wonderful flim with great acting im not saying its for everybody but pretty much everyone will enjoy it.If its on it is worth watching.

I actually enjoyed this movie, mostly because I was in several scenes. I was working for and EMS service when the assistant director approached us for use of our ambulances. We were not allowed to have anyone else operate the vehicles so they paid us as Special Skills Extras. I was the one driving the ambulance in several scenes as well as a "closeup" in the office when being told the nurses kid hadn't been told yet.

David Charvet and Gary Graham were very nice and down to earth but the female lead was very upset on the last day of shooting that they would not allow her to be flown form the Springback Airport to the Calgary airport so she could catch a flight back to the US.

The relationship we had with the Assistant Director eventually lead to the opportunity to be in several other "made for TV" movies.

So unrealistic it's laughable, from an aviators point of view it's a joke as pointed out in another review. The weather in mostly beautiful unlimited visibility the the next second it varys from light cloud to zero visibility. If this is in fact based on a true event the makers of this film didn't convey much factual info and got zero technical advise. Avoid this movie like the plague.

I cannot believe a medevac in the north would leave in bad wx without parkas, hats, mitts and felt boots. Who doesn't know you lose the most heat through your head? Would toques really have spoiled the visuals? I couldn't stop watching this stupidity!! Just to see how the story ends.... really.

A kid is getting sick, some people have to save him. Using an airplane for transportation, a crash wasn't avoidable. You can imagine what happens then. Actually nothing. No story, no actor performance, nothing to watch.

If are not forced to watch this movie then you can save yourself the meaningless entertainment in watching it.
