|
SKU: 101
45min/b&w - Here are three films that give a rare glimpse of early Naval aviation. The first film, "The Navy Flies On", made in 1943, covers early carrier flights, sea planes, lots of early crash landings, fixed-gear biplanes, torpedo planes and the perfecting of dive bombing. The 2nd film, "Aircraft Carrier" is the story of the launch of an Essex-class aircraft carrier and its shakedown cruise. You will see flight ops and the life of the 3000 men aboard. Finally, "Our First Line of Defense" is a rare Naval aviation recruiting film, extolling young men to help build the Navy we needed for WWII.
