Not sure if your interested folks but I have put my copy of The Aviary on ebay starting price 99p.

Just type in The Aviary DVD if you want to bid on it.

[DanteDepaula]

I don't see your copy on there but I do see that NEW copies are available on there for about $17 US.

[OzzieO]

No its sold thats probably why you couldn't see it. Sold it for £3.20.

Fired

Drag...looks like Silver Tree, the FA who made The Aviary was fired from her job for making the film:

F/A Who Made Movie "The Aviary" Gets Canned By Her Airline

According to the latest entry in Silver Tree's online journal, she recently was fired by her employer. Apparently, they didn't like her movie. According to her journal entry, the airline also demanded that she remove "slanderous" comments from her website, even though she was only quoting a New York Times article. She never mentioned the airline by name, yet they still drummed up some excuse to fire her.

See:

Sounds like she's got one helluva wrongful termination lawsuit!

Here's a link to an earlier thread where the movie in question was being discussed:

I think that it's total BS. Don't they have bigger things to worry about? I think it's pathetic.

[DanteDepaula]

Any lawyers here that can tell us if she's got a case?

[jasonbowers]

It seems like her union should help her - if not, what are they good for?

[DanteDepaula]

Well in her case, if she is with UAL as I have heard- her union is probably not very stong judging by how they dealt with th pernsion loss of the fa's in that past couple of years. I think striking for most of these unions is a thing of the past.

The Aviary

I too have watched the DVD and thought it was great to see us portrayed as it really is - although I wanted to see more in flight in dealing with pax. It does show how lonley and repetative it can be and really not glamorous as the rest of the world thinks it is!

Much respect to the stewardess who did it - although revolved around the relationship aspect too much.

I'd like to see a british version with the loco airlines! Jet2.com - get in there before EazyJet!

[tallulah1978]

Paid too much....

But I am a great big wally because I paid $25 all in all. Now I've lent it to a friend who haas lent it to another and another - wonder if I'll ever get it back???? hmmmmmmm.....

I think you can only get it on the website (www.theaviarymovie.com). Or borrow on (mine is on loan at the moment).
I did a search on the movie and came across this news story on the film from a few weeks ago titled "The Movie The Airlines don't want you to See" Pretty funny: http://www.arguscourier.com/entertai...ary060405.html

I've just purchased mine. Lets hope it arrives quick!

Hello..

am new to this forum and can't seem to figure out how to create a new thread so i thought i 'll ask myquestion here ...i know the age requirements are normally min. 19-21 but would like to know what is the preferred age for flight attendants? Thank you.

[powdermonkey]

Hi Salieee,
Just go to whichever forum you want to post on, in this case Cabin Crew, and look at the top of the page. There is a box with "New Thread" on it.
Click that and work away.

I tried Netflix as well and got a form letter back (six weeks later) saying that they have had numerous requests for the movie but that it's being "self distributed through the website www.theaviarymovie.com website only. They said they prbably won't carry it until 2008.

Its a good movie, just enjoy it for what it is!

Dont any of you do, beers on the bus to the hotel or have crew rooms?? Drinking in uniform, what the public dont see doesnt hurt anybody!
As for sitting around on standby in uniform, Dont we just sit around in our PJ's all day?!
All in all ive had the movie for about a year and yes it sound korny but ive watched it a few times too many. We are a wierd bunch of people, but you have got to loves us!
