Annie, an enthusiastic hostess in overall shorts, visits a Wisconsin air show and interviews the likes of sound-barrier breaker Chuck Yeager, moon-strolling astronaut Pete Conrad, and daredevil aerobatics champion Patty Wagstaff in this 27-minute venture into the world of stunt flying. Don't look for instruction on plane operation here; it's strictly a look at milestones, heroes, and heroines. A timeline keeps track of feats by the Wright Brothers, Amelia Earhart, and some of the aforementioned while Annie cheerfully puts a nice balance of men and women on camera to talk about and show their stuff. Watch how a wing walker stays put. See several planes do several loop-de-loops. If this daredevil stuff makes you crazy, don't let your kids fall in love with it, or you may be crazed for years to come. If there's a strong interest in flying, this video is appropriate for preschoolers; otherwise 5 and older. --Kimberly Heinrichs

5.0 out of 5 stars Five Thumbs Up For This One!, December 13, 1999

About A Day with Annie in the Sky: IT'S A BLAST! It's very educational, and it has fantastic stunts. It moves slow enough that you can see everything, but fast enough to keep you interested! I especially like the rocket ship. And if there's anything else you want to ask me, feel free.

I loved this video because it is informative for adults as well as children. What a unique idea for a video. The Osh Kosh Wisconson EAA airshow. Fun to watch and very educational. I was impressed to learn that my boyfriend knew the names of all the airplanes in the video! A great gift for boys AND girls.

I've only been on commercial airliners, but now I know a lot about different kinds of planes. Annie talks to the pilots about what it's like to fly (as a pilot). This is the only video I've seen about an airshow.
