NATA Chief Arranges Viewing... For Those Who Should See It Most

by ANN Correspondent Pete Tobin

His movie has already become an iconic presence at AirVenture 2006... and now, Producer/Director Brian J. Terwilliger has been invited to screen his beautifully woven documentary about Van Nuys Airport, called "One Six Right" on Capitol Hill on September 22nd.

This is important to general aviation because not only is this a fantastic film about a specific airport, it is also a passionate and moving film about the love of general aviation as a whole and does discuss issues and ramifications of the loss of general aviation.

This opportunity for one of our own to meet with Washington power brokers was arranged by Jim Coyne, the President of the National Air Transportation Association (NATA).

Coyne is a former member of Congress and taught at Wharton School of Business. Coyne has been an extremely effective spokesman for general aviation and is very active on the possibility of the general aviation user fee issue.

Not only is "One Six Right" a great film for pilots to watch, it is also a really positive film for non-flying audiences -- and may help aviators express why they have so much love for aircraft and the ability to fly.

Although Brian is not a political activist per se, he has given general aviation a powerful tool to help with challenges and conflicts that flying is facing in today's world.

Besides... the movie "One Six Right" is a really nice addition to anyone's DVD library.
