Outdated footage and inappropriate age range
The age range on this DVD says ages 2+. My 3 year old son who loves planes, and generally enters a zombie-like state when watching TV, was bored within 5 mins of this video. There are interviews with pilots which are very much lost on a toddler that needs action and kid-friendly voices. This may be better for a 8-year old or older. Also, the video footage looks like a series of videos from the 1980's that has been pieced together. I would not recommend for anyone under 8 and even then, it's questionable.
My kids: this video has too much talk!
First of all, only half of the two videos on the 60-minute DVD is about jet planes; the other program is about ships. My kids found both videos boring. "Why is there so much talk?" was their constant question! A big problem from a parent's perspective, other than too much talk that's incomprehensible to anyone under 12 or 13, is the actual clips are poorly shot and edited, making it very difficult for a child to grasp what exactly is a jet plane and what makes it fly. My kids didn't like this DVD at all.
Great video
My 2 year old loves this video, his older brother love it too! I have learned so much about airplanes too!
