Wings of Courage 1995

An Imax story of two legendary French aviation pioneers, Jean Mermoz and Antoine de St. Exupery. Having heard of Henri Guillaumet's flying exploits and needing another young pilot to cover the Santiago de Chile/Buenos Aires route, the two famous airmen recruit Henri to fly for them. Henri has two passions in life: flying and his devoted and trusting wife, Noëlle. The night before Henri's first mail delivery, Mermoz tells him that the route he will be flying is a treacherous run across the Andes Cordillera range, where the mountains peak at 21,000 feet.
