Franny with the Jordanian topgun: Director Franny Armstrong plans the helicopter route for the aerial filming in Jordan. She managed to boss round three captains from the Jordanian police force.
Franny and Lizzie with Jordanian pilots: Director Franny Armstrong & Producer Lizzie Gillett with Captain Hayyaneh & Captain Gargodeh, two helicopter pilots from the Jordanian police. The filmmakers needed aerial shots of Amman, which you can see in the film, and the only helicopter they could source was through the military / police. This was both Franny & Lizzie's first time in a helicopter though the way Franny hang out the window filming you would never have guessed.
