A wonderful tribute to general aviation airports and the wide spectrum of people and aircraft who use them.The photography and music are superb, as is the artistic mix of historic and contemporary footage.ONE SIX RIGHT isn't just for those who love to fly; it's for anyone who loves a good story.By the end it's quite clear why the DVD is subtitled "The Romance of Flying."A marvelous, moving, well-produced film.
Rating:  - One Six Right
After returning (2) two copies of the DVD "One Six Right", neither of which would play, I decided I would obtain the DVD from other sources. Even though the price would be more than Amazon requested.I really cannot give a review of the DVD as I have returned them, and am now waiting for my refund.

Rating: - Incredible story but sad implications
This movie was a fabulously shot video history of an airport, the community adoption, and then the community rejection.It is so sad to see how many businesses, and other local functions like airports, have brought so much to an area and then the people turn on it like a mad dog.In many cases the business adapts but the people rarely do.
O'Hare airport in Chicago is a prime example bringing incredible jobs, wealth, and opportunity to a city building it into an aviation empire only to see it now beat up daily by the local residents and politicians.Ironically the politicians even turn on airports gladly throwing away millions of dollars so they can "look better" to the voters (i.e., Meigs Field in Chicago).
America has become a land of build it, use it, crap on it, get angry once it leaves, and then ask for a handouts from lost jobs and income.This video does a good job explaining this mindset and it's sad implications.
Finally, it also shows our admiration of flight, technology, and the people taking the financial and personal risks.The people still have these admiring feelings but the exposures to these great things are being taken away from us everyday.
An incredible story but sad implications.

Whether you're a pilot or not, this is an important work. Airports are the life blood of many small communities. They are precious resources and are not fully appreciated by many. Since the dawn of mankind, we have watched the birds and wanted to fly. Now that we can, we need to guard this wonderful freedom in every way we can. Please go to your local airport and just watch the planes. Take your kids to see the planes fly and infect them with the fever and excitement that flying can bring to us.
Pilots are a special breed, they are friendly, easy to talk to, and can add a whole new dimension to our lives, if we let them. I have been a licensed pilot for over 35 years and it has been an honour to help general aviation succeed. This is a wonderful movie. Enjoy!
