He should have absolutely gotten his first Oscar for this role.
He was too young to play Howard Hughes here.
No, shouldn’t have. Nothing about his performance evoked the real Howard Hughes.
Cate Blanchett too supporting actress
I just realized that Howard wasn't concerned about smooth rivets due to drag reduction as much as he was enabling his OCD for that smooth texture
@Amir Carlos bot replier
the countersunk rivets were pretty important though.
Parasitic drag is major
Most designers and even pilots have some form of obsessiveness. Hughes in reality had a lot of other issues going on. Undiagnosed bipolar disorder, syphilis, concussion damage from multiple crashes, and medication addictions. Doesn’t change the fact he was a helluva pilot, innovator, and dreamer. He knew what he wanted and went for it all out.
My great grandfather was the first on scene that day. He was a California Highway Patrolman working in Santa Anna. He just so happened to be driving by the beet field where Hughes crashed. My Mom's side of the family claim to fame.
Ernsthaft?
@@philipppaasch8929 100% serious. The Santa Anna CHP department only had one car at the time, the rest of the patrolmen were on motorcycles. My GG, who was normally on a motorcycle, was in the car that day, and witnessed the crash. My GG was terrified when he approached. He thought that Hughes was near death because he was covered in blood. Turned out to be beet juice.
That's really cool. Wish one of my relatives could've been a part of history like that.
The risk of people takes back then just to give us a better future :D
the way of the future
Ever heard of astronauts? Pretty big risk.
That's gotta be one of the coolest airplanes I ever saw.
That’s a damn beautiful machine.
yep :)
Yes
Right?!
The music makes you wish you are flying right in the cockpit with him.
This movie made me embark on a research journey to learn about most of Howard’s employees seen in this film. Howard Hughes knew to surround himself will brilliant innovative mustangs.
He died alone and crazy in Vegas. Poor guy.
The Mustang was not made until 1964. And a half.
@@barrelrolltoday6051 This is the state of the greats
@@catlady8324 I hope you’re not actually this dumb.
@@catlady8324 he meant innovative and free thinking people
2:24 Dang, this is a stunning scene. It gets me every time!
The way he moves that stick looks like he is shifting a damn 18 wheeler.
and he's shoving it as hard as he can, full down elevator, just as he's approaching the strip for a low, full speed pass. apparently it's some sort of speed control in that aircraft? absolutely vomitous piece of work.
Yep, it's ridiculous. Also, when the engine runs out of fuel, he's got plenty of airspeed, so what's the problem? No, in Hollywood, when an aircraft's engine stops, it's a catastrophe. They should watch Bob Hoover doing AEROBATICS in a twin turboprop, with both engines off!
@@finntastique3891 Hughes did crash the H-1 Racer into a beet field after running out of fuel so I'm not sure what your complaining about.
@@Edax_Royeaux I am criticizing Hollywood's way of portraying forced landings in movies. I hold private pilot and glider pilot licenses, so I have a clue of what I'm talking about.
@@finntastique3891 You're just ruining it for everybody. You don't notice how terrible actors box on film do you? I do and it makes me nuts. Bad form, very open. You name it.
But I don't bitch about it.
I love Howard. He was a fellow Houstonian My Dad built artillery shells in his plant in WW2.
There was a replica of this aircraft built by Jim Wright. Beautiful aircraft. Even equipped with a rare Pratt & Whitney R-1535 twin row 14 cylinder engine. After showcasing the aircraft at the EAA Airventure in Oshkosh Wisconsin, Mr. Wright was killed when the aircraft crashed on August 4, 2003. One can read about the investigation by the NTSB online.
They were actually going to use the plane for the film, too. Until what happened, unfortunately, happened.
Love his reaction at the end. Also shows how insanely skilled he was.
Canopy
No canopy
Canopy
No canopy. Awesome editing :)
1:47 opened cockpit
3:01 closed cockpit
Nice observation
I noticed this too. It bugged the hell out of me to see that open canopy, since Howard was a fanatic about the aerodynamic cleanliness of the plane. The last thing he would have done, is open the canopy, which would have completely destroyed the drag.
It's not that the canopy is open...it's that it doesn't actually have a canopy at certain points...just a windshield. I think at the time of the crash depicted in the movie, the plane did not have a canopy at all, and they added one later. I get the feeling that maybe they shot two different scenes for different flights of the H1 in the movie, and then edited them together for brevity, hoping no one would notice the continuity issue.
@Draky you do understand that they filmed the front windshield what looked like a canopy right? In all of the scenes he had no canopy;)
I think he was going so fast he hit a time warp and appeared later in time when they added the closed canopy, then warped back to their current timeline on the open cockpit again.
It´s the only explanation he was able to switch so quickly between the two.
Proper film 😊!
There's just something so cool about those 1910s to 1930s race airplanes, like this one, Deperdussin Monocoque, De Havilland DH.88 Comet, Supermarine S.6B (which was later evolved into the Spitfire), Gee Bee Sportster (the pilots of which sadly used to have a short life-span).
Back then it was almost like art. Nowadays? No beauty just performance which isn’t bad but still.
Well, and then there was the Me 209 V1 that kept the world speed record for 30 years, only to be topped by a F8F-2 Bearcat...
Man, what a beautiful plane
This is great movie ..especially for people, like me, who have phobias ... you can still kick ass!
He seemed to have a phobia for everything except flying. I guess we owe him big time for helping make aviation safer.
1:24 2 days into no nut November...
Daniel Wang imao
Haha very good
lol ok you win lol indeed!
...no,it's still going on😂😂😂
FREAKING HILARIOUS!!!
Still don't know how DiCapuio didn't get an oscar for this one...
Gavin Belson knew how to design products before he lost his way.
Imagine if he fitted a Rolls Royce R engine. That thing would have been an absolute monster.
Anyone else notice all continuity errors? Especially with the canopy.
In my opinion they are doing this on purpose. They know that there are youtube channels and blogs and stuff like that which are searching for mistakes like that. Kind of cheap publicity.
?? this movie was filmed in 2004 and came out in 2005
My theory still is under development!
I noticed that right away. I’m glad I’m not the only one. Also did you notice the color of the crops in the field? Why do you think they tinted the plants a blueish green? It kind of gives it a nice vibe IMO, but I’m curious what others think.
Lars Fjelde The coloration in the movie actually changes as it progresses. A bit of a nod from Scorsese to the filmmaking part of Hughes by having the color palette replicate those in the films of the time. Since coloration in film was so primitive in the 20s-30s, the color in those scenes reflects that. The scenes set in the 40s look a bit more naturalistic.
It is funny, how Leo is managing to opening an closing canopy during that flight 😀
Beautiful plane
Love that Howard Shore music.
Great movie.
"She'll go faster"
Awesome
I like how everybody is totally surprised that the plane consumes fuel.
That attitude ! ! Love it ! !!
So do ambulance crews, it keeps them busy.
One of my favourite scenes from the movie! Big thanks to the uploader.
Sure, one of my favorites also, Could´nt find it anywhere so i uploaded it.
I like the way this plane made a 180 degree turn on its propeller, deadly machine indeed!!!
My FAVORITE part of this beautiful movie
I notice how much I love this movie.. yes , i noticed that
To all you anal-retentive so-called experts, whining about the inaccuracy of this, I have some news for you: all of this was true.
Howard Hughes was known for testing his own aircraft, including the H1 racer. He is the one who broke the air speed record in this aircraft. When he took it out on a test run he indeed ran out of fuel, and had to crash in a nearby field. When his crew arrived, he reportedly simply said "we can fix her; she'll go faster".
I just hate the fact that the cockpit is clearly open in some shots and there's zero wind turbulence. Still has perfect hair
Such a wonderful age when 352 mph was considered fast for a plane and they were breaking records every other year both on land and in the air
to people complaining about the continuity errors with the cockpit: Scorsese does stuff like that on purpose. I can't remember why, but he purposely leaves in things like that. The only one I can think of off the top of my head right now is in Wolf of Wall Street where Donny is on luudes and knocks the glass off the side. The glass appears back totally unharmed later after Donny gets up
Yeah right, when I´m stopped by the police after going 150 mph on a 50 mph road, I also say it´s on purpose to see if they noticed it. lol
Oh it's a Scorsese movie, I was wondering was it was so bad
@@KwakWack was it was
They were not continuity errors! The Wolf of Wall Street had contradictory things like that all through the movie to show the narrator was not reliable in
recalling his past since he was on drugs most of the time and had lied constantly. Scorsese was interviewed before the movie was released and he mentioned this technique that he and his editor used and had done so before. At least know what your talking about before you shoot your mouth off like a clueless child. This is world now: snap judgements without any knowledge or facts and stupid analogies just to get their written word on social media. Piss off!
Scorcese: uhh... yeah, i did that on purpose.
Really good film
ohhhh the crrrrinngggge!!!!
Did anyone notice how much they enjoyed this scene? I did. That's why you're here
I love jet
what a beautiful plane
I want that plane, now!
I needed this scene for my Film Arts class. Thank you so much!
nice, sure, happy to have helped.
A plane was only successfully first flown 32 years before this.
Fun fact: The plan was to use a real aircraft, someone by the name of Jim Wright had managed to develop a fully-accurate replica of the H-1 but the replica was destroyed in a crash.
She was beautiful.
This movie deserved for Best Picture Oscar 2005 over Million Dollar Baby
Howard Hughes was a genius
And a poor pilot.
“Fastest man alive”
Slower than most of the Schneider Cup seaplane racers of the period-some of which exceeded 400 mph four years earlier.
You are confusing HP with mph man ¬¬
No Schneider Cup competitor entrant exceeded 400 MPH although there were other planes in 1931 that did.
The Schneider Cup was for seaplanes though which were faster than land-based planes at the time.
I'm sure that by 1935, the speed depicted in the movie would've been considered to be rather slow as fighters were being developed by several nations at the time.
the Supermarine S6.B achieved 407mph in the 1931 Schneider Cup, and the Macchi M.C.72 acheived 423mph in 1933 outside of the Schneider Trophy, not being able to compete in 1931. It went on to Acheive a record of 440mph which still stands at the fastest seaplane to this day.
JazzBoatman
Well, fastest piston-engined seaplane.
I didn't realise til recently, but the issue with land-based racers was airstrip length. They had to get airborne within a certain distance so, high wing loading or not, it was still less than a seaplane (with an entire bay or channel to take off in) had. So, the landies were aerodynamically compromised compared to the seaplane racers until airstrips got longer. Which they did during the war, when mono fighters with high wing loadings became commonplace, as did huge bombers with long take-off runs. Mid-30s biplane airstrips were not ideal for racers.
Classic rich guy. "I'm good at one thing, so of course I'm good at everything."
no, he killed crew members and crashed planes because he would not follow test plans and just winged it. Running out of fuel is pilot error.
Pilot, aeronautical engineer, aeronautical contractor, movie producer, businessman, philanthropist, playboy rake, promoter, and more. Not just good at one thing.
@@TigerDude333 Being a pilot back then is not like being a pilot now. WW2 Pilots were picked if you had great eye sight and decent IQ, you were basically IN as a fighter pilot. Hughes was literally a insane obsessive overachiever, who was willing to sacrifice the lives of his employees and EVEN his own life to accomplish. He risked his life testing numerous planes he did not have too, cause that is just the type of guy he was. He isnt normal like you or me, but we NEED crazy obsessive people like him to get us to places normal people would never dream.
@@tigerjonn It might just be me, but killing your crew crosses a line.
@@TigerDude333 police, military, firemen, fishermen, even electricians and even construction workers, and more specifically test pilots are paid to risk their life and injury. They do dangerous work and put their lives on the line for the benefit of whoever is paying your salary. At least this CEO had the balls to risk his own life along with the life of his men. You think the CEO of Mercedes or Dodge today would risk their life to test drive something that could potentially be dangerous..? I doubt it. But this guy did. That's why i respect him.
The GREAT Howard Hughes. Man was practically a GOD
Just imagine - at the time, this was the fastest mankind had ever travelled.
Within just a few decades, mankind was traveling over 17.500 mph in spacecraft. That's nearly 50 times the speed.
No wonder why they thought we would be on Mars by the year 2000.
Yet, here we are in 2018...putting poop emojis into comments and wondering what gender pronouns to use on our pets.
Not even close. This was the landplane speed record. The seaplane record was at the time over 440mph, set the year before.
Yep. The Schneider Cup racers like the Supermarine S.6 were the fastest machines ever made at the time.
However, in a long distance race the H.1 would easily win... as the engines in those seaplane racers were tuned to run for minutes only between complete overhauls.
Science has regressed. What used to be biological fact of 2 genders now has turned in 483 genders bassed off of that days feelings.
Aviation tech have been very slow progressing since 1960s. That's why 737 is still the primadona of the sky
Tony stark 👌
Santa Ana CA? There are no cliffs in Santa Ana CA....hell there aren't any hills in Santa Ana CA.
Is this some rough cut or something? Seems really unpolished. And what is that in the field, peppermint blood-fruit?
Yeah it really took him forever to slow down there, like he was sliding on ice.
Peppermint blood fruit, I loved that suggestion
Howard is the type of guy to ride on the fastest jet in the world and complain for it to speed up
his hair use's cement and not pomade
AMMAR D.N LOL! 😆
Precisely
That´s why he didn´t used a helmet.
What is pomade? Is it some sort of sweet roll?
You know, you'd think they'd close the canopy to decrease air resistance.
Especially after weeks of work to reduce drag from rivets
My favourite scene from the movie. I wonder about all the negative comments.
The comments are full of aviation experts picking holes in what was an artistic interpretation or mythologising of a historical event. If we wanted history, we would have watched a documentary. I and most viewers (from the L/D bar) seem to have enjoyed this.
I'm pretty sure that, if you went "Criiinge" or "Grr, planes do not work that way!" when you first saw this in the movie, then you just came here to troll.
As someone who liked The Aviator and enjoys the style and editing of this scene, I really didn't expect to see most of the comments being from aviation experts flexing their muscles. I understand they feel strongly about the details but I truly believe most of these people haven't seen or care this movie lol.
@@YN-jc9je I'm a pilot and love this movie. The other experts are just flexing their 2 weeks of ground school knowledge because "they're cool".
whered that field even come from? wasn't he on the edge of the grand canyon or something in the middle of a desert?
The airplane on the airial shots is a closed canopy and the one shown is open.
hi man, can i take this video for my youtube channel pls?
For the people complaining that this is fake and acting like smartasses, this is a movie, it is not meant to be real.
My O.C.D. is going nuts over that open canopy ! Did he really fly with it open ??
That would be a huge source of drag !
I am not aeronautics expert, but I sure as hell won't be leaning so relaxed against a smoking gas-powered plane that I just crashed.
I guess you don't know much about Howard Hughes. That's exactly the type of thing he'd do.
ar 1:11 the plane is show with the short "Red" wings, the model builders built the plane with the long "blue" wings
One check movie. ✓
Wanted a sequel
That day, cut short some people's menu of having beets for Thanksgiving!! LoL
he's reacting in the cockpit as if he can hear what they're saying on the ground
They recreated this plane in GTA V. It's guaranteed to get you killed. (Assuming you can afford it at over $1.4 million.)
What's the model in gta5?
Jaxs Davis It's called the Howard
I bought it today and it is a handful
Watch making of Aviator ruclips.net/video/rNXdPrBPfr4/видео.html and subscribe channel.
I got 1.5bill... If you don't have modded money in GTA V by now, you got some real soul searching to do.
Why didn't he land back on the runway? Planes don't fall out of the sky just because the engine quits.
If this is a depiction of a real flight, Hughes was a lousy pilot.
Tristan Baldauf-Warren
As depicted in the movie, he had a large amount of energy. That would’ve enabled him to get back to the runway from a long way away.
If, in reality, he was flying slower when he lost power, and was farther away, then he would have land off the field as was shown.
In any event, there was a lot of unrealistic flying scenes in the movie. It still was fun to watch though.
@Tristan Baldauf-Warren is top gun worth watching?
Tristan Baldauf-Warren
I don’t know what they are planning, but Cruise is way too old to be an active pilot in the Navy. He could possibly be shown as the head of the air group on a ship or something, but he shouldn’t be a fighter pilot.
George George
Top Gun is one of the best flying movies of all time. If you haven’t seen it, do it now!
@@EtzEchad I'm pretty sure that's what's gonna go down in Top Gun 2. I mean, he was literally offered that job at the end of the first one.
This scene is so fake. 1, he doesnt even close the canopy. 2 the turn were flat out dumb. 3 when his engine died he just suddenly lost a ton of speed. 4 even if he did lose that much speed a stall like that would have gaven him enough speed to pull up. Hollywood gets stuff like this all wrong
@ZeOverman at 3:00 the cockpit has a canopy and its closed
wait how does fuel have anything to do with this comment
@@thetimewalrus7424 the orginal comment talked about how the plane ran out of fuel fast
There is no such thing as an "rpm altimeter." An altimeter measures altitude, a tachometer measures rpm. Two different things.
For your info: The aircraft did not have a top canopy, instead the seat raised and lowered to give the pilot some visibility during landing and take off.
this era of romantic in air
The aircraft was a full-sized model, look at 2:14, how the horizontal stabilizer "wiggles", the real thing would be far more rigid...too bad, the movie was great.
i don't think you get how light planes are.. One man can easily push a plane like this in hangar with his bare hands.
sam93931 I am quite aware of the "lightness, the particular fragility of light planes. I have time in a Cessna 152, Bellanca Super Viking, Grumman Traveler.
the whole tail wiggles because of the bare ground.. Not the horizontal stabilizer.. A man sees what he wants to see.
sam93931 Drop the playback speed to 0.25, crank up the resolution as high as you can, you will notice both tips of the stabilizer bob up & down, flexing at the wing-root, very much unlike "the real thing". If you can't see this & draw this simple conclusion, sorry, I can't help you.
They did have a large R/C model of the plane, a full size replica, and also some of the scenes were rendered in Lightwave. ( 3D )
Cinefex has an excellent article on the making of the film.
I feel like the entire scene was sped up
The canopy keeps switching from open, to closed, to open again, shot after shot and the color correction is a bit too heavy on the last scene
Damn this is bad. This is what happens when you don't consult aeronautics experts
@Tristan Baldauf-Warren no but I am a pilot. It makes me sad to watch as the plane goes from open canopy to a closed canopy and how DiCaprio uses full forward and left at " high" speed. Shit like that breaks planes.
Matrim quite true. And the planes don’t just fall out of the sky when the fuel goes out. With his speed and position he probably could have glided back to the runway and landed the plane.
Experts. More like anyone that has ever seen a plane fly.
+Matrim I don't know never flew a plane
Well that same model plane still exist.
Kind of reminds me of a Corsair
The Space Shuttle("The Flying Brick") glide like an eagle compared to his plane...
Howard Shore lit the beacons before ROTK. 2:50
Anyone noticed that they used a Rolls Royce Merlin engine sound for the most part? I find that hilarious, and I'm sure a bunch of you can guess why.
Because this is a radial engine?
The Merlin was inline spitfire and mustang engine but this plane was radial engine
Does anyone know the name of the song that plays, opening scene?

here's the link. youtu.be/Kqu2QGI8B
You can check it on the descrption of the video too.
If only military have accepted his designs, USA would have had a huge air superiority in the WWII. Hundreds of thousands of lives could have been saved.
God that chrome finish is nice
Everyone going on about 'continuity errors' ...
FELLAS there is a BY-GOD contrail in the scene !! ahhaha
Also, clouds in this scene.
The whole reason Hughes had the plane built was they could NOT shoot on the movie. They needed clouds to shoot the ww1 fighter movie scenes. So Howard had them build the plane to pass the time.
And then here, sky is FULL of clouds ! Instead of amusing themselves they could have shot on Hell's Angels.
Hello
Good gig only thing missing is ear muffs
Why are the colors so off??? I know that is like so in the original clip, but I don't know why
It was done on purpose to emulate the way films were coloured in that era. The colours change as the film progresses
I hear some Rohan in the score via Howard shore
Any know the song in the begining?

Obsesses over flush rivets for aerodynamics.....flies with open cockpit...
that’s hilarious! I bet it was some accountant who was like, why don’t you guys just cover the cockpit with a hatch? 🤣
The flush rivets part was mainly because of Hugh's OCD.
Could someone that has actually flown a plane be called in to assist when they are filming airplane related stuff?
He's flying a plane with that stick, not stirring porridge.
The whole scene was very sloppily done. I think the director thought, or expected the audience to think, that pushing the stick forward means faster and pulling it back (as he did when sliding in the field) means slower somehow.
"She'll go faster."
13 year's after we would break the sound barrer for the first time.
what did they do to the colors in this movie? those poppies look mad.
Scorsese shot the movie with different cameras and film strips to emulate how the technology evolved over the decades. By the end of the film, the colours were much sharper and the resolution in line with the technology available at that point.
Is this plane from Malaysia, perchance?
You couldn't ask for a better crash landing. Though he wasn't as lucky in the next crash.
