very good precoder star dick barthelmess and which in a way and kind of remind me of hawk only angel have wing ( 1939 ) and in which barthelmess also act . this film be direct by masterful william wellman and who be responsible for the landmark aviation silent picture wing . barthelmess play a devil may care airplane pilot and who be a blamed for an aviation accident . afterwards he meet and fall for pretty sally eilers and who participate a part of an act in an itinerant air circus while but when barthelmess brother appear in scene and a triangular relationship ensues . central airport have many thrill moment and some moving and touch scene too and thanks to the great chemistry that develop between barthelmess and eilers ( who and in my opinion and in this film resemble very much actress dorothy mackaill ) . tom brown be good a barthelmess brother and fresh from his success in wyler tom brown of culver . great special effect and good flying stunt and swiftly pace film while in all and highly entertaining . don not miss it when tcm air it again .
