Gern Blenstin This show makes a real effort to cover everything. Popular (and my personal favorite) subjects such as airliners and military fighters are in there but so are small aircraft, ultralights, helicopters, blimps and balloons. They even had a segment on remote controlled aircraft!I've always been in awe of watching the big airliners taking off. Yeah, I'm one of those people who park on the side of the road to take pictures! But I never considered that that was a real indicator of my hidden inner passion for flight. The Aviators has taken that singular interest and allowed me to expand it. It seems my passion has leaked into the many other aspects of aviation that I never really paid much attention to. Truth is... I love it all! And I have The Aviators to thank for opening my eyes to it all.They say it's "For everyone who has ever gazed skywards". Well that's true. That was me! If you've ever been mystified by planes, either by watching them at the airport or at air shows. Or ever dreamed of flying from your seat when your vacation flight was taking off, then this show is absolutely for you!
Carl Miller The Aviators TV program is informative,educational and well paced entertainment show.Any airplane or flight enthusiast will LOVE it.We need more of these shows or more like it. They give very good in-site into the aviation field.Good/non bias new product reviews.And good for beginners and probably(since I'm a student pilot) experts as well.They show a great variety of aircraft. I am definitely getting the DVD box set for reference. GREAT SHOW!
