| Summary: |
Three years before Charles Lindbergh's celebrated flight across the Atlantic, three bi-planes landed at Sand Point Field in Seattle after an epic 175 days in the air. The six men who emerged from the cockpits had become the first pilots ever to circumnavigate the Earth. Featuring dramatic reenactments, state-of-the-art computer graphics, and extensive archive material, History presents a celebratory account of the historic flight around the world. |
