Richard Burton, Clint Eastwood, and Mary Ure in Where Eagles Dare (1968)

FAQ

Where Eagles Dare

FAQ



    Presumably the trio of double agents killed them because they were suspicious of them and had seen or heard something that betrayed their treason.



    Yes, the Germans used a small number of early helicopters in late World War 2 for tasks such as transport and artillery spotting in addition to numerous experimental prototypes. Two Fa 223 Drache ('Dragon') aircraft were actually assigned to the German Army's Mountain Warfare School at Innsbruck, so the prescence of a helicopter in the film is surprisingly plausible. They did not, however, have anything that looked like the Bell helicopter used in the movie.
