(Anna Paquin) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fly_Away_Home Agree 100% with Gatt. I thought of this movie immediately, but couldn't remember the name. If this movie doesn't do it, nothing will. RNR |

The last time I saw Wagstaff fly the younger elements of the crowd looked bored. It bothered me until I realized it's because she makes it look so easy that one might suppose anybody could do it. -c She's a lovely person as well as one of the finest pilots on the planet. You're right. She makes it look easy. She's also flying Jim Beasley's P51 on occasion and her display in the Mustang is extremely well done. -- Dudley Henriques |

Lou "Always" is a great flying movie with Holly Hunter as pilot, air traffic controller, and in a love "triangle". |

controller, and in a love "triangle". Thanks everyone, I've ordered a couple different movies from the library. I think I'll wait on the love triangle movie, I'm her dad, I only want her to start certain interest. Dudley, please apologize to Patty for me, I realized what I wrote after I hit send. Lou |
