DVD Reviews of One Six Right
DVD Review: A compelling story for the preservation of general aviation
Summary: 4 Stars
One Six Right tells the history of Van Nuys Airport in California, which is really a microcosm of the overall history of general aviation in America. The photography is beautiful and the flying scenes are inspirational. The many stories from those involved in general aviation and Van Nuys airport, provide a compelling human touch to the journey. The message is clear: we need to preserve these small airports as they provide the infrastructure and community for fostering the early stages of one's aviation career. All pilots, regardless of their level of skill, experience or type of aircraft flown, begin their training at an airport just like Van Nuys. If they disappear, as is happening all over the world as the demands for housing, shopping malls and industrial land take over, so too will our ability to train new pilots.
It should be noted that this is more a story about an airport itself than a story about flying. There are plenty of flying scenes, but the bulk of the story is devoted to the airport and its long and rich history. Watching the early stages of the documentary, particularly the stories about the combination of fear and exhilaration of 1st solos, certainly evoked fond memories of my own experiences learning to fly. However, I felt that the momentum of these emotions was somewhat lost when the story turned to the history of the airport. Quite a large chunk of the running time is devoted to this story, and I felt it distracted slightly from the excitement I experienced at the beginning of the movie. Perhaps more time could have been devoted to looking in detail at some of the wonderful aircraft that are stored at the airport, or some footage and explanation about actually flying an aircraft. Some of the aircraft were simply beautiful, and it would have been more interesting for me to have known more about them and the people who fly them.
Description of One Six Right
One Six Right is an exhilarating documentary film that celebrates the unsung hero of aviation - the local airport - by tracing the life, history, and struggles of an airport icon: Southern California's Van Nuys Airport. Featuring thrilling aerial photography and a sweeping original score, the film dispels common misconceptions and opposes criticism of General Aviation airports. Through the love story of one airport, past to present, the film shares the timeless romance of flying with all ages. The film takes viewers on a journey of spectacular aerial sequences and tells a romantic story through the accounts of passionate pilots, air traffic controllers, historians and flight enthusiasts, including well-known faces such as Sydney Pollack, Lorenzo Lamas, Paul Moyer, Hal Fishman and many others. There is no off-screen narrator. The film uncovers the rich history of this airport - Amelia Earhart broke a world speed record over its runways, Marilyn Monroe was discovered while working in its hangars, and scenes from Casablanca were filmed on its grounds. Almost every type of aircraft has graced its runways, from the primitive airplanes of the 1920's to the state-of-the-art business jets of today. Through the history of the Van Nuys Airport (VNY), the viewer comes to have a new appreciation for the significance of all General Aviation airports as a critical component of the communities they serve. Located in the heart of the San Fernando Valley, VNY is today the world's busiest General Aviation airport and contributes over $1 billion each year to the Southern California economy. One Six Right explores common misconceptions about General Aviation airports, which are often criticized for noise pollution and viewed as exclusive playgrounds for the rich. The film creates an awareness of the threat to these community airports through staggering statistics of airports that no longer exist, and the rapid rate at which they are continuing to close (1 per weekBestsellers in DVD
