Using original footage as well as reconstructions featuring a host of famous actors, including Laurence Olivier as one of the important figures of flight. From Leonardo Da Vinci and the Wright Brothers to Von Zeppelin and Amelia Earhart, there is much on 1930s commercial flying as well as experimental planes and helicopters. The documentary provides an interesting and highly cinematic account of the evolution of aviation.
