The British comedian Benny Hill plays the air field fire chief; his role is not listed in the movie's credits. [Not quite correct. Benny is listed in both the opening and closing credits. His precise role is not against his name, but then that applies to most of the minor characters in the film too.]
Edit
When Dubois has to land his plane just short of Paris, he lands on a field, and the plane's wake blows down a hay stack. But the wake should blow the straw towards the plane, not away from it. [It would seem that the contributor has never stood behind a propellor driven aircraft while it was revving up. The slipstream most definitely flows backwards.]
Edit
When Yamamoto receives the news about the race, look in slow-mo as he lands his kite. On close observation, the cables the kite has been suspended on from the set can be seen. [The rules of this site are quite clear - if you have to use slow motion to see it, it is not a mistake.]
