Has anyone heard of or seen the general aviation movie One Six Right?
My classmates won't stop talking about it and I don't know where to
look.
Has anyone seen it or heard of it?
Thanx!

I also own a copy of the DVD. Good film. Granted,
it isn't 'A Fine Week of Soaring', but it's a good
video for any pilot's collection.
(In reference to 'A Fine Week of Soaring', the 'One
Six Right' is about General Aviation airplanes and
not gliders. I much prefer gliders.)

I Guess that "A Fine Week Of Soaring" is the benchmark. Nice job, Juan.

Couldn't agree more, Tony... Just answering his question.

I caught the film One Six Right on the Discovery Channel. Pretty neat
and I don't even fly powered aircraft. I grew up under the approach to
16 in Van Nuys, California. 1957 to about 1968. I think that is how my
aviation interest got started.
"Windborn" is another good soaring flick. But has anyone seen the
newer "Gladiators of the Sky"?
I found a trailer for it, looks very interesting:

Disagree there - the Gladiators of the Sky DVD is better. (I own both)
Jaun did a great job on Fine week of Soaring, and for a novice/early contest
pilot there is much to learn about decision making. The ridge shots are
impressive, and as a flatland thermal pilot I still continuously am amazed at
the flying. It shows the social side nicely too.
BUT - the budget shows on Gladiators, and if you want to introduce the concept
of glider flying to people it does a better job. I have watched the level of
sustained interest and excitement and gladiators does it for both the
uninformed, and the glider pilots.
