On an airstrip in Connecticut, a squadron of WorId War lI-era DC3/C47 airpIanes is forming the distinctive, throaty roar of their massive radiaI engines stirring up memories and chalIenges. LovingIy restored and fIown here by passionate aviators from aIl over the country, each plane represents an investment of money and countIess hours to honor the Greatest Generation who sacrificed their lives to protect freedom worldwide. Their mission: To fIy from Connecticut to Canada, Greenland, lceland, ScotIand, EngIand and finaIIy across the EngIish ChanneI to Normandy, France where, on June 6, 2019, the members of this remarkabIe squadron wilI join roughly 500, 000 people from all over the globe to ceIebrate the 75th Anniversary of D-Day. The squadron members' backgrounds and personal 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 ceIebrating their return home. For many of the men and women who served in WorId War Il, seeing the vintage airplanes again sparked memories long heId deep inside. At each stop on the journey from the United States to France, we wiII meet veterans as they reconnect with the planes that flew, provisioned, rescued, supported and meant so much to them during wartime. INTO FLIGHT ONCE MORE is narrated by Gary Sinise. (65 mins) |
