Even though its North American television premiere is still about a year away, the crew of “The Aviators” had a busy summer. So far, they’ve filmed 15 segments were shot for the show, which will air on PBS in the United States, on network television in Canada and in syndication overseas.
Segments included pieces about the U.S. Air Force, Airbus, Icon Aircraft, Cessna, Joe Balzer, the Tiger Moth, the Russian MiG-15, and Julie Clark.
“The pilot episode is in the works as we speak,” said Anthony Nalli, executive producer. “John Lovelace and his post-production team should have it ready in a matter of weeks, at which time we will release it to advertisers, broadcasters, and distributors. Clips will also be placed on the gallery of our website.”
Work on the spring shooting schedule is now in full swing and “The Aviators” is welcoming story ideas.
“Ideally, we’re looking for stories that can capture the interest of pilots across North America — stories broad enough to additionally attract non-pilot, aviation enthusiasts are even better,”Nalli said.
