What's left behind the scenes

  • The film is based on the plot of the 1944 documentary "Memphis Belle: A Story of a Flying Fortress".
  • Filming took place in the United Kingdom, at the now-defunct RAF Binbrook airbase (Lincolnshire), which housed RAF Bomber Command during World War II, and at the Imperial War Museum Duxford (Cambridgeshire).
  • Active and retired Royal Air Force personnel participated in the filming.
  • Five B-17 aircraft were used in the filming, three arrived from the United States, and two from France. After one of the aircraft (reg. no. F-BEEA) crashed during landing, another B-17 from the United Kingdom was used in the filming. Six privately owned Mustangs were used as escort fighters.
  • The real Memphis Belle aircraft is a modification of an F model Boeing B-17 "Flying Fortress", but the film used a B-17G "Sally B", whose main visual difference from the B-17F was the presence of a front dual-gun turret. Therefore, it had to be removed for filming.
  • Spanish Hispano Aviación HA-1112 fighters, which were licensed copies of the Bf.109G, were used as German interceptors Me-109 in the film.
  • The 'Memphis Belle' herself was not used in the film, as she was undergoing reconstruction at the time.
  • Katherine Wyler, a co-producer of the film, is the daughter of William Wyler, who was a war correspondent and participated in the filming of the documentary 'Memphis Belle: A Story of a Flying Fortress' in 1944.
  • In the film 'Memphis Belle', the aircraft makes its final raid on Bremen; in reality, it was Lorient in Brittany, France.
  • In the film 'Memphis Belle', the aircraft returns to the airbase heavily damaged with only one working engine. In reality, the aircraft completed its last combat mission without significant damage or injuries to the crew.
