Our crew at Scroggins Aviation would like to thank the producers for giving us the opportunity to work on Jumanji: The Next Level and for supplying them with our Russian made Antonov An-2 biplane for the making of the film.  

Scroggins was contracted by the producers to supply the An2 and make several changes to the airframe. Our team made these changes by cutting down the bulkhead wall between pilots compartment into the main cabin, added two wild (removable) fuselage wall side panels for ease of camera angles, painted the interior and exterior, added several functional cockpit gauges in the instrument panel which would work on command by an operator, wild windows and assisted with special effects in the underbelly drop down ramp which the Jumanji characters fell from during the scene.

 

Jumanji: The Next Level was released in theaters on December 13, 2019.  It is now available on Blu-ray.

The first film production CH-47 Chinook with the latest digital glass cockpit is available to the studios! Our Chinook was upgraded with the newest CH47 ”F” model series cockpit display screens, which is the same type currently installed in the U.S. Army helicopter fleet.

Scroggins Aviation’s CH47 Chinook (90-00204) is shown here with its newest updated cockpit panel. It is fitted with 9 color playback screens. We also have the option to swap out the digital cockpit panel for the older standard panel.
