This was really a great series A&E ran in the late 80s/early 90s. I love the intro as the camera slowly moves into the boy's bedroom showing all the model airplanes hanging from the ceiling.
Interesting film, but the narration has problems. For instance, the Boeing Clipper, the Model 314, was really a development of the the 294, or XB-15. The Model 299, which became the B-17, was basically a downsized 294 with the same engines and, therefore, better performance.
