Chasing the Clouds (2003)

Chasing the Clouds (2003) - When it opened, Smith Reynolds Airport in Winston-Salem was hailed as one of the finest airports in the country. Its facilities help defeat the Axis during World War II, and later gave rise to one of the nation’s leading airlines. “Chasing the Clouds” uses rare photographs and early movies of the airport to tell how a few far-sighted civic leaders worked together to give Winston-Salem the best airport in North Carolina, and how that airport fell victim to the larger forces that came to shape commercial aviation. Winner of a Telly Finalist Award as well as the 3CMA 2004 Savvy for Best One-Time Program.
