Tom Cruise flying a Boeing Stearman biplane 'on location' at Duxford Airfield, UK on 29th September 2021 for filming of 'Mission: Impossible 8'. According to recent media reports Tom is 'learning to fly' the Stearman for a 'stunt' in the movie 'Mission:Impossible 8'. He already holds a helicopter pilots licence and a fixed wing pilots licence and also owns and flies a P-51 Mustang.
The Stearman aircraft that he's flying is equipped with two movie camera rigs, one mounted on the outer port wing struts and another on the inner starboard wing struts.
The 1943 Boeing Stearman Model 75 (E75N1), is US registered as N65691 and owned by Paramount Overseas Productions Inc. The second aircraft, another Stearman is also owned by Paramount and carries US registration N801RB. At least four Stearmans have been at Duxford for filming duties since mid September.
The aircraft are initially seen returning from a filming 'mission', before Tom later goes out again in his Stearman for some 'circuits' and 'bumps' of the airfield, shortly before the 'heavens opened' and the rain arrived.
His front seat passenger is former German Air Force Pilot and graduate of the US National Test Pilot School, Klaus Plasa.
