Description: DESCRIPTION: Flying with Arthur Godfrey; 7:23:19- 7:23:31; An old (Wright Brothers style) plane sails through the air (nice sounds).; Cut to a medium close up after it has landed.; 7:25:02- 7:25:18; Excellent aerial view above old military planes (World War I vintage); crisscrossing in the air. Cut to another angle of the same planes shooting; up and down in the sky. The final shot shows one of these planes nose diving to the ground. Looks like stock footage.; 7:40:40- 7:41:11; Nice image of a plane coming towards the camera (we're viewing it out the window of another plane)-it zooms under us, and there's a cut to a full view of it. The plane is shiny and silver against the clouds and blue sky. Cut to image of it going sideways into the clouds-we can see the ground below.; 7:44:49- 7:45:00; Over-the-shoulder (of the pilot) view as a plane is landing-we see the; ground getting closer to us (blurry clusters of houses below). Cut to view; of the belly of the plane as the landing wheels emerge.; 7:45:15- 7:45:33; Gorgeous series of shots as a plane lands. First we view the landing from; the cockpit, second under the belly of the plane (we see trees, houses, and the airport's runways), third back to the cockpit, and finally back to the; belly.; 7:50:41- 7:51:11; Great night shot of plane landing-all we see are the lights of the runway.; 8:01:10- 8:01:41; Nice dramatic image of a fighter plane diving. Cut to another, less dramatic; angle of a fighter plane. We can see land below in square plots-looks like a map.
