Pretty good little movie, something of a documentary on Arthur Godfrey's flying an Eastern Airlines Connie from New York to Miami. His buddy Eddie Rickenbacker made him an "Honorary Eastern Airlines Captain."

Oh yes, in the cameo appearance of Rickenbacker, he is flying his World War I Spad in 1953. Rickenbacker was American's leading Ace in World War I and won a Congressional Medal of Honor before becoming associated with Eastern Airlines.
