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 🤥
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 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.
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
😂that look in his face when he knows where he is going. 💪👊
Fandango is a cult classic! Great movie. The way it ends is whoa.. It gives you tear or two!! Timeless classic!!
That bridge they flew under was just demolished in Dec 2023 sadly. I drive under the new one every morning
It’s a cult classic. Just badass and funny. A true world we can’t live in anymore. Such a bummer :/

Crazy plane ride? More like fantastic scene from a fantastic movie. Fandango!!! Love the stoner focus at 1:28.
Essa cena é a mais engraçada do filme hahahahahahahahahaha
Helicopter pilots > airplane pilots
ANGELS!!!!!
Air America.....lol...
FANDANGO RULES!!!!!
I’ve been a flight instructor for 20 years and this scene never gets old.
"Mind if I cut in" - words NEVER spoken in LA beyond this scene (or America)
Only part better than this, was when he kicks the chicken out of the plane. "No flying today Hazel" 😆
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?
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.
me in gta san anderas
1:36!!
Gonna tell my kids this was Bob Hoover
Truman's now flying for Delta. He's just their type.
I'd fly Delta if he was the pilot. Oh hell yea.
I love Fandango! Great story, great actors, great stunts, and great music.
lol, 7m budget, 96k at the box
@@chef423 Still great movie.
When bush league pilots can't get the job done...Tree Top Flyer...Son of DB Cooper...
Love the hand signal for the left turn. Makes me laugh every time.
So polite of him. He is such a light-hearted person.
I love this film, brilliant performances and soundtrack.

Basically everyone on the 18th, trying to find their own house: when Microsoft Flight SImulator releases xD
Tulsa!
Reminds me of my first Solo Cross Country from Sacramento to Willows Airport up highway 5.
They dont do things like this anymore!!! This shit WAS GREAT!!!!!
Dangit. I was hoping you included the part where he pulled up to the girl’s house & honked the horn. 😂
"Mind if I cut?" "Sure." "Thanks a lot!" 😂😂😂
Cut in...
This is what I picture when people ask me how do I see myself in the future
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.
Truman Sparks is my favorite character in this film!! And those two cops shaking their heads... unforgettable scene.

sounds crazy but this was why I became a pilot.

IFR Pilots navigate using roads, how convenient
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.
