Editorial Reviews

This 4 part program begins with the first 25 years of transcontinental flight as United Airlines pioneered the skies of America from 1920-1945. See many of the early mail carrying aircraft and passenger planes of Boeing, Douglas and the other early aircraft manufacturers who pioneered the early world of aviation.

Next a great American Airlines program about flying the Curtis Condor, a two winged passenger giant. A remarkable story about planes, airports, passenger facilities and aircraft crews as they existed then. Next the early history of the famous European airlines, Lufthahsa German Airlines from 1920-1940. Witness the beginning of this great international airline as it made aviation hitory.

And then a very interesting program with great flying scenes about early federal regulation of the airline industry.
