The film, Flying The Edge: Test Pilots, is a documentary about the high altitude world in which aircraft test pilots ply their trade.  Beginning with early test flights at the dawn of aviation and moving forward to the many "X" aircraft flown post World War II, "Flying The Edge: Test Pilots" reveals what it is like to live with constant danger as a test pilot puts a prototype aircraft through its paces.  The world of test pilots is exciting but one where an incorrect split-second decision can result in a crash and injury or possibly even death.  "Flying The Edge: Test Pilots" follows test pilots such as Yeager, Crossfield, Dana and Thompson as they pushed experimental aircraft like the X-1 used to break the sound barrier, the X-15 used to fly to the upper atmosphere or the X-29 used to test the maneuverability of an aircraft with forward swept wings through a test schedule.  "Flying The Edge: Test Pilots" is sure to appeal to any aviation enthusiast.  Full screen in black & white and color.  Released in 1991.  Runtime 36 minutes.
