Default "Boy who flew with Condors" now avaliable

Just wanted to pass on to everyone who might be interested that the
Disney movie "Boy who flew with Condors" is now out on DVD. The
problem is that I think it is only avaliable online through the Disney
Movie Club. I orded a copy yesterday and I should have it in about a
week.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for posting that! I've been looking for that for years.

Fortunately I have 3 young kids, so joining the Disney Movie Club is not a
big deal for me.

After I get my copy and if the quality is good, maybe I'll have to buy a
batch to sell from my web site.

Good Soaring,

Paul Remde

Hi,

I just couldn't resist - after joining the Disney Movie Club I bought a
batch of the film for sale on my web site. I charge a bit more, but you
don't have to join the Disney Movie Club to buy it from my store. I expect
them to arrive in a week or 2.

Wonderful. Did you see any sign of any other Disney titles with gliders
in them, of which I think the only ones may be "Goofy's Glider" (1940)
and The Sky Trap (1979, WWOW TV, s/ Jim Hutton).

P.S. I thought "Wind", "Ron Howard's Skyward", and "Nancy Drew
mysteries" were Disney productions, but I think not.

Hi John,

I just did a search on all the titles below and they were not found on the
Disney Video Club site.

A few years ago I bought a DVD copy of Skyward from a source that did not
appear reputable. It was obviously a copy from a video made using home
equipment and no case, etc. It was of pretty good quality though. It's a
sappy movie, but I like all the glider and biplane scenes. You can see
Derek Piggott as the glider instructor if you look closely.

I remember a one hour TV show from the late 70's early 80's about a
boy in a glider. It seemed to be a Grob Single Seat Astir. He and a
girl drove around with the glider in tow behind a red pickup, and then
she would give him an automobile launch off a desert lake bed. I
thought it was on the Sunday night Disney show. Is that title "The Sky
Trap?" Does anyone else remember such a show? Any clue what the title
was?

Also, is "Skyward" the film with the young girl in a wheel chair, and
Bette Davis is the cranky flight instructor? I think we watched that
film in School...

-Kevin
