The P-51 is the one airplane in the world that should never cease to exist and never cease to fly. If necessary, we should be making faithful reproductions of them a hundred years from now, simply so that there will never be a sky that does not hold at least one of them on any given summer weekend.
Just ordered this from amazon, cannot wait to see it. Just this sequence alone is truly inspiring. What better plane to begin a story about the romance of flight then a Cub.
Brian, as selfish as this sounds, thank God you were born color blind and couldn't pursue a career as a professional pilot. Had this not been the case you would have likely never made such touching documentaries on the miracle of flying. You somehow manage to capture the "feeling" of flight on film which is another miracle in itself. THANK YOU!!!

The only other thing that has ever choked me up like this was that one scene from little miss sunshine where the Nietzsche kid whos dedicated his life to being an AF pilot learns hes colorblind and cant fly. One is beautiful and the other is heart-wrenchingly sad, but they both get me every time
Brian, thank you so much for making this exceptional movie. I can't watch it without tearing up towards the end... It is just amazing, and it reminds us all why we fly, and why we never stop up reaching for those white things up there.. we call 'em clouds.

Brian: I don't know if you ever check these comments but if you do:
I remember sitting in the back of a International on the way home from the Camarillo Air Show and this young man is telling me his idea about a documentary about KVNY. Dream big, dream often but most of all, don't let go of those dreams. You've touched the hearts and souls of so many.

This is one of my favorite movies of all time. i learned about it a a Van Nuys Airport air show a few years ago. I was un-sure then yet now i just am in love with the airport and the movie.
This film gives me goosebumps each time I watch it - and yes, I've seen it more than once! I enjoy sharing this film with my non-aviation friends in hopes of getting them hooked too.
I saw the producers flight with the Blue Angels, and looked up 16R the movie immediately. Without seeing a preview for it, I put it on my xmas list, and got it. I watche dit one night and it was absolutely the best aviation movie that ive seen to this day. And im saddened that Meigs Field was closed for the reason it was. I am an avid flight simmer, and have addon scenery for meigs field, and love to fly out of Van Nuys. This movie is simply amazing, and a must see for anyone into aviation!
As a young man who's life dream is to fly, this film hit home for me. There really is no way to describe what flying feels like for me. The sky feels like home, and this film seemed to capture that very well. I made all my friends see it, telling them: "If you want to understand me at all, you have to watch this." I love this film!
This is absitively positlutely the BEST AIRPLANE Documentary on the face of the earth. Thanks to Brian and the production team for this masterpiece. I wish this came out on screen, though :(
