(3 Hours, Black and White, 1944-45)
Nine films featuring the Stearman N2S: Flying Sense * Before You Fly * Your First Flight (Parts 1&2) * Attitudes of Flight * Taxiing & Take-Offs * Landings * Race Track Patterns (Parts 1&2) These films lay a fine ground work for primary flight skills
This series of basic flight training films was produced and directed for the US Navy by actor and Hollywood legend Robert "Bob" Taylor, who starred in over 80 films including "Waterloo Bridge," "Bataan," Ivanhoe," and "Billy the Kid." Taylor was a Lieutenant in the USNR and an active flight instructor during the War, and it shows in this comprehensive presentation. You'll learn everything from ground school chalk talks on the theory of aeronautics and flight to hands on throttle, stick, and rudder training on turns, banks, trimming, climbs, stalls approaches and much more. The films also give plenty of insights into a war time flight school, punctuated by humorous vignettes, illustrations and animations.
The other star of these films is the beloved Stearman N2S biplane trainer, aka "The Yellow Peril." This sweet biplane was the first step up into the sky for tens of thousands of pilots during World War II, and many are still flown to this day by it's legion of loyal fans. You'll get to know the Stearman inside & out!
