The new Batman film, The Dark Knight Rises, has an opening scene involving two aircraft. One of the aircraft is the South African-registered and owned ZS-NVB. The Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante belongs to John Richardson of Batair Cargo, an air freight company based at Lanseria. It was flown to the UK for filming in 2011 in Inverness, Scotland, and Cardington, England. A prop copy of the aircraft was also made and used at Cardington for filming.
