An outstanding historical piece. Magnificient photography with smooth, clever editing. Beautiful! It made my heart soar. Thank you Brian.
Incredible story but sad implications August 26, 2008
This movie was a fabulously shot video history of an airport, the community adoption, and then the community rejection. It is so sad to see how many businesses, and other local functions like airports, have brought so much to an area and then the people turn on it like a mad dog. In many cases the business adapts but the people rarely do.
O'Hare airport in Chicago is a prime example bringing incredible jobs, wealth, and opportunity to a city building it into an aviation empire only to see it now beat up daily by the local residents and politicians. Ironically the politicians even turn on airports gladly throwing away millions of dollars so they can "look better" to the voters (i.e., Meigs Field in Chicago).
America has become a land of build it, use it, crap on it, get angry once it leaves, and then ask for a handouts from lost jobs and income. This video does a good job explaining this mindset and it's sad implications.
Finally, it also shows our admiration of flight, technology, and the people taking the financial and personal risks. The people still have these admiring feelings but the exposures to these great things are being taken away from us everyday.
An incredible story but sad implications.
Wow August 26, 2008
Whether you're a pilot or not, this is an important work. Airports are the life blood of many small communities. They are precious resources and are not fully appreciated by many. Since the dawn of mankind, we have watched the birds and wanted to fly. Now that we can, we need to guard this wonderful freedom in every way we can. Please go to your local airport and just watch the planes. Take your kids to see the planes fly and infect them with the fever and excitement that flying can bring to us.
Pilots are a special breed, they are friendly, easy to talk to, and can add a whole new dimension to our lives, if we let them. I have been a licensed pilot for over 35 years and it has been an honour to help general aviation succeed. This is a wonderful movie. Enjoy!

Reach for the ky August 8, 2008
Don't let the rather arcane Title of this superb little HD video deter you. Anyone with even the most vague interest in the romance of air
travel is bound to get something from this potted history of the topic.
The tone adopted is just about perfect for general interest viewers --
not too technical and certainly anything other than dry. No attempt is made to out-do the celebrated Antione de Saint-Exupery -- no poetic
treatise this, just a simple tale of dedication to the mastery of the skies, told by those ordinary men and women who lived it day by day.
Lovely photography of actual flight makes full use of high definition
technology. Strongly recommended.
 Not movie, but documentary July 27, 2008
I'm a 24 years old pilot with about 40 hours flying solo in a LSA, i thought this movie would teach my friends what flying is about, the feelings that are involved in every flight because is something that no matter how hard you try to explain the feeling, they will never understand. The truth is that i saw the movie, and it's a beautiful documentary about van nuys airport with stunning flying shots of beautiful airplanes, but i no longer feel excited about watching the movie with my friends because i guess they'll get bored.
