Pierre (no last name) sent me this pointer to a music video by Celine
Dion and Garou that includes a glider flight:

Curious, the sailplane in the video appears to have no registration
numbers.

club.

Johan,

Very nice video.
Looks like an LS-4.

Anyone have a translation?

Thanks for the info. Do you remember what year it was filmed?

That's great. Could have done with more air to air and less of the
singers.

'High Flight' says it all better and more succinctly.

Oh, something like:

Beneath the wind.

And if you thought I was afraid, that's wrong. I sent my heart on
vacation, a small rest.
And if you thought I was wrong, hold on. Breathe a little of art's
breeze that presses me forward.

(Chorus) And it's as if I took to the sea. I set out the mainsail, I
slipped beneath the wind. And it's as if I left the Earth, I found my
star, I followed it at once. (Choir: ..beneath the wind...)

....More verses like,
And if you thought it was over, never...
And if you thought I forgot, listen...

Doh! Googling, I found websites with full lyrics, inc. in English.
FWIW, my ear heard "...souffle d'art" instead of "...souffle d'or" in
the first verse (art vs. gold). The duet song appears to be from a 2005
album by Celine entitled "On Ne Change Pas" (~ We don't change). I saw
a reference to the same tune, however, on a 2000 Garou solo album.

That must have been a very, very cheap video to shoot. A glider and
chase-plane for a day, maybe two, a room draped in gauze, and
off-the-rack black clothing. 10K maybe?

another one, in German though:

(about 2/3rds down the page and there's also a "making of")

I saw a french movie on video a few years ago, probably made in the
sixties or early seventies. It included a scene with a guy who (in
desperation with his family? I fast forwarded all other scenes so...)
takes off into a wave and refuses to come down and land untill he's
very cold and the sun has set. If you haven't seen it you might not
have missed a lot.

Possibly some of our french friends can help?

Thanks for the pointer. When I click on the video, my browser wants to
download a file in .ram format. What's that?

Thanks, Phil. I'll add a mention of this video to the list. If someone
with a working RealPlayer installation wants to get some screenshots,
I'll put them on the page, too. I uninstalled RealPlayer after some
weird system problems, and I don't really want to try it again.
