soaring on screen

There was a one hour show called Free Flight on the Discovery Channel
in the early 90's. It was part of a series called Equinox. It was
partly about the prototype of the ASW-24 as well as other topics. Very
interesting and enjoyable.
There was an excellent short movie produced by IMAX called Silent Sky.
I say it in the late 80's but it was produced in 1977. I've tried very
hard to find a copy. IMAX says it's not avialable on DVD or video. We
should all bug them to do that.
Yes, this project has turned up a whole bunch of orphaned works: "The
Sky Trap", "Skyward", "The Boy Who Flew With Condors". They were made,
but just aren't available now, in any form. In many cases they never
made it to video.
It is teh sux.
