If you’ve ever seen a movie, television programme, music video or advert featuring an airliner, executive jet or airport interior, there’s a good chance it was filmed with the assistance of Air Hollywood. Based in Pacoima, California, and with facilities in New York, Atlanta in Georgia, and South Korea, the company provides realistic, film-friendly airport and aircraft sets and aviation-themed props to the motion picture industry.
