If you can get past the fashion aspect, there’s some good vintage plane shots and some good aerial views. Southwestern US travelogue flies around in modern 1930s airplanes, stopping off at Albuquerque and an Arizona dude ranch, all the time focusing on fashions worn by its cargo of aspiring Paramount starlets. Excellent pre-World War II fashion footage in Kodachrome, plus documentation of affluent tourist destinations. Produced and directed by Harry D. Donahue. With Mary Martin.
Vintage film showing the inside workings of an airline. Few cuts in the beginning but cleans up. It features a TWA Super Constellation named Star of Paris (N86511) which on February 5, 1946, inaugurated the first scheduled commercial air service across the Atlantic. The first flight from Washington DC to Paris, Charles De Gaulle airport was fourteen hours, 48 minutes. en.wikipedia.org www.twaflightattendants.com
