This DVD is my second World Air Routes film to add to my collection. It was really excellent to fly on an aircraft that is just so old it is rarely seen now these days. The walkaround check done by the F/E was very interesting. It was very nice for cpt. Mendez to welcome us aboard flight WE 039. The key facts that were reviewed while on the ground at San Pedro Sula, Honduras did give me more insight on this aircraft's history. Cpt. Mendez did an excellent job presenting the cockpit on the return flight to Miami. And the presentation of the Flight Enginner's panel while on route to San Pedro Sula was also interesting too. And last but not least is at the end of the film when cpt. Mendez talks a little bit about the aircraft he has flown for Challenge Air Cargo. This is a must have if you like classic aircraft like the Boeing 707-330C.

Although
my favorite airplane is the 777, I'm glad I got
this DVD. As a matter of fact, I watched it while
flying on a 777 between DFW-KIX. I'm glad you made
this available as a DVD because for anyone who
remembers the 707 it will always go down as one of
the greatest airliners in history. It was the first
American built jetliner in service, and it was the
first jet airplane I ever flew on, back in 1965, on
a TWA 707 from EWR-IAD. I still have memories of
that flight. The crew presentation and scenery was
excellent. I especially appreciate the nostalgia of
the pilots as they recalled their fondness for the
airplane. Thank you for making it available in
DVD.

Just
got the DVD. The 707 is one of the avaition greats.
Very detailed DVD and some real hands on flying.
The crew gave a detailed overview of the aircraft
and their duties during the days flights. True
affection for this aircraft shown by the crew. Well
their not the only ones sorry to see this aircraft
retire. Thanks W.A.R for releasing this DVD.
Another one to add to my growing collection.

I
also own the VHS version of this video and I have
to say it is fantastic. We get a great detailed
walkaround by the F/E and as far as I can remember
it was unique to see the last 707 in service in
North America at the time before it was shortly
retired. The destinations visited in South America
were great. A must have for all classic jet lovers.
Who knows, I might even buy the DVD in the future
for the quality will be much better.

I
only have the video tape, but planning to buy the
dvd. What I like about this program is the flight
engineer's detail explanation that covers both
in and out of the aircraft. Outside
preflight list is just amazing, this is what
separate this program from the rest. Not to mention
the professionals skills on these crews when
they work together to bring this old workhorse up
in the sky . It's great to hear those engines rev
for the very last time in United States. Two thumbs
up to WAR Team.
