Trivia
The newborn male dragon already has the swastikas tattoos on his wings. How was that done before he was hatched and still in his egg?

Goofs
During the early days of the Battle of Britain, the British attempted to use flamethrowers as a weapon against enemy aircraft. It was found to be totally ineffective. Planes flew at a high enough speed that they flew through the flames without suffering any damage whatsoever.

Therefore, the dragons in the film should not have been able to destroy any of the P-51 aircraft.

Hire to fire

Somewhere in Northern Africa, back in WW II. Nazis discovered dragon eggs, raised many grown up dragons a little later, and hire four witches to control the dragons by psychic powers. Then they attack allied forces, planes and tanks are destroyed by the fire of the mythic beasts, until a British general develops a cunning plan: shoot back...

Another trash movie from director Mark Atkins I remember best for 'Princess of Mars' and 'Sand Sharks'. The budget was obviously very low, for example the pilots in the cockpits are always shown in a close-up with a narrow focus range against a blue studio background, so nobody can see interior details of the planes. The acting is ridiculous, just for example take the the French pilot. Well, you knew from the subject of 'Dragons vs. Planes' it wouldn't be Shakespeare, still this is entertainment on a very modest level. The fantasy element of the co-operating witches is interesting, but will work better in a different background, i.e. a pure fantasy movie. The best scene of this movie was, which is telling a lot, the drinking contest. Maybe I'll recommend the same to 2 people I really don't like some time.
