Travel America's Most Famous Road by Air
Acclaimed aviation photojournalist Russell Munson takes you on a Sky Bum's tour over the Mother Road in his Piper Super Cub. Although largely replaced by interstate highways, Route 66 endures as the spirit of the open road, and a kindred spirit to all who love the freedom of flight. Flying low and slow over the entire 2500-mile path from Chicago to Santa Monica, Munson shows what is and what was of the famous highway. As the trip progresses, he muses on weather delays, the beauty of the desert, the mindset of always having your bags packed, and the sheer delight of being at home in the sky flying a small airplane. Features bonus section including, "What is a Piper Super Cub?", a gallery of Munson's spectacular air-to-air photography, favorite Johnathan Livingston Seagull images and aerial photographs. color.

Somewhat accurate account of Route 66.
Cons
Lacks many of the more familiar landmarks/sites along the route disappointing coverage of many areas. Too many pictures of things not cloesly related to Route 66. Major city attractions fly past way to quickly to be enjoyed.

Video is very drab -- mostly a combination of still photos, and even those don't capture Route 66 in the way I had hoped they would.
General Comments
I was looking for a more 16 Right approach to Route 66 -- if that's what you're after, this video is not for you

I'll watch anything aviation related. Great Snap Shots.
Cons
Not what I was expecting. it's not a motion picture of Flying Route 66. it desperatly needs the first 6 minutes removed. I have an idea that Mr. Munson drove a VW bus with puff the magic dragon in the right seat and flowers on the side in the sixtys.
