Above the Clouds on TV

Apparently 'Above the clouds' with James Robertson Justice as a BOAC pilot was on TV last Thursday afternoon and after waiting years for it I completely missed it!! Did anyone perchance record it and would you be prepared to make a copy for me for a small fee??

I'd be extremely grateful for any help.

Kind regards,

Desk pilot

I think you mean 'Out of the clouds', and I also missed it!

Desk Pilot.

Did you get a copy of Out of the Clouds.

If not, send me a email, I might be able to help.

Peter.

Regrettably I saw this film was on last weekend and mistook it for the apparently similar but bl@@dy awful Taylor/Burton vehicle "The VIPs" which I yawned my way through when a spotty teenager. Reading the blurb for it on IMDB, I think I missed a goodie!

Blast!

I had been after this film for years as my father used rant on about it being glorious colour film of London Airport in the good old days. After writing to the various TV companies for years it finally gets shown twice in the same year. It now graces the DVD collection.
