Last week, we had an incredible opportunity to pack up and ship out to Newark, NJ for the 2022 MTV VMAs.

If you know Jack Harlow, we guess you can figure out which song he performed, while we accompanied. That’s right, the mega-hit First Class.

He brought out the legend herself, Fergie to make things even cooler.

They used our New York Narrow Body set and our blue Swiss BC Seats.

Amanda Seyfried does an amazing job capturing Elizabeth’s demeanor and that deep voice she is so famous for. This Thursday, the series comes to a conclusion – how do you think it will end?

We had the pleasure of hosting the cast and crew in North Hollywood in August 2021. They came into work on both our Narrowbody Rolling set & our G3 private jet. Take a look below at some of the things you got to see while watching the show.

Yesterday, we brought you the behind the scenes photos of our airplane set for Yellowjackets, see here

Today, we wanted to bring attention to the Netflix feature film, Sweet Girl, which premiered in August 2021. For this project, we packed up our Narrow Body Kit set and shipped it off to Pittsburgh, PA, in the dead of winter.

Here are some shots from the actual film:

And now, take a look at some of our favorite shots that you didn’t get to see on the screen.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with the Sweet Girl synopsis, see below:

Devoted family man Ray Cooper (Jason Momoa), vows justice against the pharmaceutical company responsible for pulling a potentially life-saving drug from the market just before his wife (Adria Arjona) dies from cancer. But when his search for the truth leads to a deadly encounter that puts Ray and his daughter Rachel (Isabela Merced) in harm’s way, Ray’s mission turns into a quest for vengeance in order to protect the only family he has left.

BTS: YellowJackets Plane Set

/in /by

We’d like to share some behind-the-scenes photos of some of the incredible shows our plane sets have gotten to work on here at Aero Mock-Ups.

In December 2019, a pilot was shot for what would become Showtime’s hit show, Yellowjackets. We were contacted to supply the airplane set, and jumped at the chance.

We packed up our Narrowbody Rolling set and shipped it less than a mile to a warehouse in North Hollywood. While there, their incredible crew built our set out on a gimbal that was about 30 feet in the air!

Little did we know that the show would be such a hit, or even win star Melanie Lynskey a Critics Choice Award.

Take a look below at some of the work that went on before filming started.
