Synopsis

During the Second World War, the US Army Air Corps initiated a special project to integrate African American pilots into the Fighter Pilot Program. Trained at Tuskegee Army Air Field, these pilots became known as the "Tuskegee Airmen." Throughout their training and service, they faced harassment, prejudice, and significant political challenges. Eventually, they proved their capabilities through their performance in combat.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 173+ credited

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
