History Channel show update

I've seen some of the rough cut footage of the History Channel show I'm
going to be in. I haven't seen my segments yet but I'm getting five minutes
of screen time.

The segments I've seen have some clips of Byrd's Antarctic flight, unloading
the tri-motor from the ship, landing after the flight, and throwing out
emergency supplies to climb over mountains. There is also the famous clip of
the plane flipping over on a trial flight the New York to Paris flight that
Lindbergh made. Some interesting commentary. This flight, even more than
Lindbergh's was the moon shot of it's time. It proved that aircraft could
go to and function in the most hostile place on earth.

This show should be a must see for most of you, my mug and pontificating
notwithstanding.
