Интересные факты

Routine Flight is a 1955 Canadian short documentary film produced by the National Film Board of Canada (NFB) as part of the On The Spot series made specifically for television. The documentary, directed by Gordon Burwash, involved an account of a visit to a Trans-Canada Air Lines (TCA) maintenance centre while it is involved in transitioning to a new type of airliner. Routine Flight is based on first-person interviews of the staff at the maintenance centre and flight crew on a test flight.

Production

The On The Spot series debuted in 1953, with the 39 episodes, initially 15 minutes in length. For the second season, NFB produced 30-minute episodes. Routine Flight was typical of the longer On The Spot series. Each segment was produced with a three-person crew: a director, cameraman and on-screen host, usually Fred Davis who acted as the interviewer and narrator, although other journalists were involved.
