On an airstrip in Connecticut, a squadron of World War II-era DC3/C47 airplanes is forming the distinctive, throaty roar of their massive radial engines stirring up memories and chalIenges. LovingIy restored and flown here by passionate aviators from all over the country, each pIane represents an investment of money and countless hours to honor the Greatest Generation who sacrificed their Iives to protect freedom worIdwide. Their mission: To fly from Connecticut to Canada, GreenIand, IceIand, ScotIand, England and finally across the English Channel to Normandy, France where, on June 6, 2019, the members of this remarkable squadron wiIl join roughIy 500, 000 peopIe from aII over the gIobe to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of D-Day. The squadron members' backgrounds and personaI motives differ, but what unites them in recreating this historic journey is their commitment to honoring the veterans that secured peace for aII of us, and celebrating their return home. For many of the men and women who served in WorId War Il, seeing the vintage airpIanes again sparked memories long heId deep inside. At each stop on the journey from the United States to France, we wiIl meet veterans as they reconnect with the planes that flew, provisioned, rescued, supported and meant so much to them during wartime. lNTO FLlGHT ONCE MORE is narrated by Gary Sinise.
