THE LONG FLIGHT (1968)

About me:

"The Long Flight" is a 30 minute film, shot between 1966 and 1967 at various locations in Massachusetts. It was written, produced and directed by H. Henry Franck (1934-1992) and premiered in 1968 in Boston.

"The Long Flight" dramatizes the experiences of building and flying model airplanes. A young man while preparing his Wakefield for an aero-modelling competition, recalls the chance meeting in his boyhood with a former world champion who revealed to him the magic and challenge of the sport.
