It's a wonderful film.


No one says it isn't. But it's, as you say, not about sailplanes. It's
of dramatic interest, historical interest.

I think I'll go watch it now, then "The Sun Ship Game" (1969),


This one too. I have the recently remastered version. It's of great
interest to us old dogs. But if a 40 year old movie is the best thing
you've got for recruitment then there's something very wrong.

Unless your target market is purely middle aged white male academics,
maybe.
