Default OT. The A Team film

With little better to do this evening than watch the water rising, yet
again, I watched th A Team film.
Some amusement and some good/bad/poor fx.
About 3/4 way through the film the team escape in a 4 engine prop driven
flying boat.
This didn't look like sfx to me.
If it is real, does anyone know what and where it is? My guess would be
Canada. Film was made 2010 so not that ancient.
Thanks.
Nick.
From very soggy part of England.


I skimmed through the movie on you tube.
I didn't see a flying boat. Around the middle of the film I saw them
taking off in a C-130 Hercules cargo plane from an airfield.
Subsequently, the C-130 was shot down by missiles fired by a Drone.
Is that to which you are referring?
