Talk:The Island at the Top of the World

Merge proposal
I would like to propose that Hyperion airship be merged into this article. What we have, essentially, is an article is about a vehicle in a box office bomb from 30+ years ago that is nearly as long as the article for the film it's from.  PacificBoy  02:07, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

I disagree with merging the two listings. THis listing focuses exclusively on the airship in the film and not primarily the flim itself.64.81.83.182 (talk) 18:48, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Support merge. Airship is intrinsic part of movie. -- P 1 9 9 • TALK 16:21, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

Camera ship
I flew the camera ship in the Canadian Arctic scenes

FYI...I flew the camera ship for the Polar Bear and Narwhal scenes. The camera man was Bill Bacon from Squim, Washington. According to my log book, I met Bill in Resolute Bay, NWT on about July 24, 1973. On July 26, 1973 we flew 2+00 hours to Arctic Bay, NWT for staging and fuel. I logged 6+30 hours flying on July 27th, this was en-route from Arctic Bay,NWT to Admirality Inlet for the filming and returning to Resolute Bay. The Aircraft was a Bell 206B (CF-OKU) belonging to Okanagan Helicopters Ltd. A Canadian company out of Vancouver, BC, Canada with a base in Resolute. The Narwhal scenes were filmed with a 35 MM camera, but if I remember correctly Bill shot the Polar bear as an after thought and was filmed with a 16 MM camera.
