Story iDea 3: Wings of Glory Trilogy


Working Title (codename): Project: Wings of Glory (WOG) Trilogy

Setting: Earth, World War 2, Alternate History Time line, Aviation

Expected media formfactor: Movie, Multimedia Experiences.

Type: War / Action adventure / biopic

Maturity: Character over all plot framework complete, wrote the first few scene of the script but forgot where I backed it up.

This story was born out of my hobby for planes and my hobby for reading World War Two history. Development began roughly in late 1990s when I came across some comics of similar alterative history promise.

Early ideas was to make a first person prospective movie, similar to those seen in the monster movie Cloverfield, but in much higher definition.

It involve multiple battle sequences involve German and Allied flying machines that were still in design stage or testing phrases at the end of the war.

It started out as just a back to back duology, but somehow after watching the movie UP, I expended it into a trilogy of stories. A fourth alternative hisotry tale about Ausralian ANZAC forces in WW1 is also to be set in the same universe.

The three aviators from Germany, US and USSR respectively. I envision these stories as three biopics, three soul searching, coming of age tales. The idea is to see the war through their eyes while keep the audience entertained (or think) with action sequences stretching from the entire WW2 to Korean War, then the Cold War.

The first story about the Germany pilot is to be the introductory to the timeline so more character stories can be filled for the US and USSR characters.


Trilogy Plot introductory:

The year is 1937, a young gifted Germany aviator was the star of the Berlin Air show. There he met a younger American hot head pilot, youngest son of a famous US aviation tycoon and a boy genius from the USSR. Their skills make them friends and admirers of each other, but unbeknown to all three of them, the ruthless wheel of history would have them meet again in the skies of battle fields three years later.
