We are aware that there are films on the site that were added when the criteria for the inclusion of locations was very different from today and, as a result, there may be scenes missing from some productions. Please do not forward additional screen captures to us but bring the detail to our attention, for we do, and are, 're-addressing' these older entries as time allows.

The only location in the film is identified as Blackbushe Airport, on the A30 at Yateley Common to the west of Blackwater in Hampshire by Brian Westhead . . . that's him in the blue MG in the second row left.
Andrew Price provides this comparison adding that "Two of Blackbushe Airport's three runways are now disused. An entire pit lane and start/finish straight was constructed on one of the disused runways for the 2013 film 'Rush'."
