Mi-24 filming over Budapest (lots of pictures)

Post by Leadfoot »

Die Hard 5 is currently being shot in Budapest. Yesterday, the Hungarian Armed Forces' Mi-24P (no. 335) was used for some shots (reportedly, markings are to be changed with CGI). The Hind flew a number of rounds over the Danube with stuntmen (and stuntwomen) onboard, in formation with the camera crew's AS-350 (HA-ECU).

Unfortunately, this one is currently the only Hind remaining airworthy in Hungary.

Sites with lots of pictures. Of course, credit goes to the photographers - they've done an excellent job.
