Finally released on D.V.D. Airline is a fantastic series, and a very expensive one to make at the time, with a fantastic cast, including the wonderful DC-3 Dakotas.
It is a real shame that the T.V. companies fell out over this series, it was originally meant to chart Jack Ruskin building his airline up from being de-mobbed after the Second Worls War all the way up to the 1980's, but when Y.T.V. fell out with Greatorex over unauthorised script re-writes, and facing serious financial strain, the plug was pulled after the first series, a real shame!
So if you love planes, or want to watch a T.V. series made in the days before reality television, that shows how well a series can be made, then buy it now!
