I was a private pilot before I saw this movie...wow, that was some serious aerobatic work. If I remember correctly, you need a special Cessna 172 or 180 that’s rated for aerobatics to do that stuff. Just trivia....cool shots of Tulsa impersonating Dallas.
well now that's a good point? this is why i didn't become one. btw, how does a fixed wing go under a bridge , like duck diving. unless your landing, and set up. must be pretty skilled. never mind the other one. your a pilot?. fkn awesome dude.
They shot some of the footage above the Tulsa drag strip. One day I going to the motocross track that was next door to the drag strip. I looked up and saw that plane with a helicopter flying beside it. I had no idea it was going to be a movie. Good memories.
I've shown this film to friends and it receives a luke warm response. I don't understand why I think it's one of the best films I've ever seen but it never gets a mention anymore. From what I've heard even Kevin Costner wasn't that enthusiastic about the film but now acknowledges it was an important stepping stone on his path to being a Hollywood star. I think it's an intensely sentimental film and that emotion is perhaps not so popular. Even the soundtrack wasn't released as an album. Baffling 🤥
Not that I can recall. Did use a similar technique about 30 years ago troubleshooting a 'static in the comms' write-up that couldn't be duplicated on the ground in a Fokker F-27. Turned out to be in the prop-sync system. Comedy flight crew decided fly over the chief pilot's house and do tight turns around a point. It was a bit like 'leg day' at the gym. The only times I've intentionally followed roads was 'bombing' traffic with my shadow.
Love Kevin Costner, my main reason for liking pieces of this movie. Really loved him in Dances With Wolves, Silverado, and (my personal fav) Open Range.
Yep. Kostner is a B movie actor who somehow made it to the A list. Like... you can over act and talk annoyingly and have dumb ideas? Here’s hundreds of millions of dollars... go make Mad Max on a boat or some overly dramatic overly political BS or something.
Frank Conquest Jr: Time for a sequel to Fandango? If Kevin would allow me I'd like to wrote it... I've started one. Notice names in pix? My real life friend Gary Bullock aka Gardner Barnes. The Girl 'my' Jeanie. Preacher kid dressed like me when I wasn't working as a con artist; I now carry a Bible. Have a Great weekend & may GOD Bless you!!!
Marvin J McIntyre. He was also in Pale Rider & Silverado. In the latter he played a stiff general store owner who wouldn't let Kevin Kline borrow a pistol. Funny stuff!Should've been cast in The Quick & the Dead.
What was the plane used? They did have a stunt pilot andTruman was in plane parked aside a cliff and helicopter flew along side of it to make it look like he was flying.....Check the Trivia
I do not recall that music score, but I remember he fuels up at a gas station, and takes the plane, driving it like a car, to her house, to pick up the bride, and they head back to the highway which serves as a runway. Gasoline, I imagine is cheaper than airplane fuel, or is it the same thing? Maybe he put a car engine in the plane? Some cars, like the Dodge Challenger have soo much horsepower that they are essentially planes disguised as cars, are they not?
Even just your average car has more horsepower than an airplane. The plane that he was flying, they have 150 horsepower motors, but they are designed to run for thousands of hours without breaking at all, and do it continuously. If you were to rev up your engine really high and accelerate really hard, you could not do that very long on a car engine. These engines are supposed to use Aviation grade 100LL leaded, but most of them will run on high octane 91 gasoline, called mogas.
That movie gives me chills from 2000, from the music of Pat Metheny and Layla Mays to songs and great director Kevin Reynolds :) ! Too bad he didn't direct Waterworld till the end of movie...this way half movie is excellent, the other half sucks !
The lady in the white mustang is my mother in law and that car is in my garage. All original...
Robert Siegrist wow lol!
No shit! Wow, that's pretty cool.
Is the car in the Sonic drive in scene?
Really or you are just goofing around??????
Are you kidding...laughing my ass off.. fantastic!
I love Fandango! Great story, great actors, great stunts, and great music.
lol, 7m budget, 96k at the box
@@chef423 Still great movie.
sounds crazy but this was why I became a pilot.

How is your flying going?

Ok I’m following you @B Bobafett Changing mu plans after this!
I already had my license but it's always good fun to watch

I love this sequence! I'm surprised this movie doesn't get played more often on tv
Truman Sparks is my favorite character in this film!! And those two cops shaking their heads... unforgettable scene.
Love Fandango. Love Chuck Bush and Marvin Mcintyre. One of my favorite movies ever. I want to go to one of the Ultimate Fandango trips.

Forgot about this movie for years. Before streaming couldn't find it. A hidden gem and one of Kevin Costner's first movies! And funny too!
A fellow flight student and myself rented this movie when we were in flight training in Tulsa in the late 80's. We loved this scene 😂.
Lol. Can you imagine using this scene in a flight training class?
Love the hand signal for the left turn. Makes me laugh every time.
So polite of him. He is such a light-hearted person.

Only part better than this, was when he kicks the chicken out of the plane. "No flying today Hazel" 😆
Theres only one man alive can get him there in time !!
Such a great movie. I'm sure I've seen it 50 times. Madcap, then oh, so sweet at the end.
Where they both fly under the bridge is hwy 169 and I244 in Tulsa.
Crazy plane ride? More like fantastic scene from a fantastic movie. Fandango!!! Love the stoner focus at 1:28.
I love this film, brilliant performances and soundtrack.
That's the low-tech version of flying IFR: I Follow Roads
Hawk4570: you ever 'follow' AM radio stations w/ antenna pulled out of a handheld Japanese transistor radio?
Not that I can recall. Did use a similar technique about 30 years ago troubleshooting a 'static in the comms' write-up that couldn't be duplicated on the ground in a Fokker F-27. Turned out to be in the prop-sync system.

They dont do things like this anymore!!!
This shit WAS GREAT!!!!!
"Mind if I cut?"
"Sure."
"Thanks a lot!"
😂😂😂
Cut in...
Fandango is a cult classic! Great movie. The way it ends is whoa.. It gives you tear or two!! Timeless classic!!
I’ve been a flight instructor for 20 years and this scene never gets old.
Take that EGGBEATER!! Fixed wing RULES! ;)
Your father was the finest star pilot in the galaxy
That's downtown Tulsa, Oklahoma standing-in as Dallas, Texas. 8D 'Groovers Rule'
Dallas was just too cluttered to do a film stunt like this. Up in OK. it is wide open prairie.
one of the best movies ever. It's shame it wasn't marketed better.
Dangit. I was hoping you included the part where he pulled up to the girl’s house & honked the horn. 😂
South to Bandaid
Born to Be Wild by Steppenwolf 1968
BEST movie Kevin Costner EVER DID!!!! Not saying much but, there you go.
One of the best movies of all time!!
What's the name of the movie?
@@quik478 Oh right! It's called Fandango, I think it came out in 1984, + it's AMAZING. Seriously, I dig this film so much.
@@maire454 Thank you! I searched this word from dexcription at first, but random results.
FANDANGO RULES!!!!!
😂that look in his face when he knows where he is going. 💪👊
I remember seeing this for the first time about 30 something years ago. I thought it was a great movie. It's held up well.
That airel shot of the plane going under the road signs. thats some ballsy flying!
thats tulsa oklahoma. cimarron turnpike east of enid.
Truman's now flying for Delta. He's just their type.
I'd fly Delta if he was the pilot. Oh hell yea.
Perfect example of IFR flying.
LuvFlyin: Your IFR- acronym differs from mine.
@@wagnerpd5921 I Follow Roads
IFR ?
That bridge they flew under was just demolished in Dec 2023 sadly. I drive under the new one every morning
This is what I picture when people ask me how do I see myself in the future
Basically everyone on the 18th, trying to find their own house: when Microsoft Flight SImulator releases xD
I follow roads too :P
Reminds me of my first Solo Cross Country from Sacramento to Willows Airport up highway 5.
Super video! Stupendo!!!! Molto divertente!!! Grazie mille!!!
Love Kevin Costner, my main reason for liking pieces of this movie. Really loved him in Dances With Wolves, Silverado, and (my personal fav) Open Range.
Costner is one of the worst actors I have ever seen in cinema. But in this movie it fit him like a charm.
Yep.
Kostner is a B movie actor who somehow made it to the A list.
Like... you can over act and talk annoyingly and have dumb ideas? Here’s hundreds of millions of dollars... go make Mad Max on a boat or some overly dramatic overly political BS or something.
It was his best performance and he does not like this movie very much. Shame. He seemed to be having a great time.
@@daytripperhd I don't like this movie very much either, so I understand that, but he did do a great job in the part and made it fun
Till this day I-35 is still under construction.
Love it.
The movie "Fandango" with Kevin Costner and Judd Nelson. A Classic.
Frank Conquest Jr: Time for a sequel to Fandango? If Kevin would allow me I'd like to wrote it... I've started one.

That guy acted in a ''Back to the future 3''...when he tries to sell a suit for grave of Michael J. Fox lol !

darken gale: he played in Twins; reminds me of real life doofus 'Goose' Gonsoulin.
He was also in The Running man.
He was also in Short Circuit.

Kelly KitKat: back then most stations carried 105/106-octane fuel for cars; planes that size normally used 110/120-octane.
I hope this is satire
whats this movie???
okay thank you
