★★★★ · I wanna be a pilot! · Spuzz · 2014-06-11

Film designed to keep kids in school, as some people just wanted to drop out and just become pilots! Not so, says trained pilot! You need education to become one, and any advanced profession! The film then gives some examples of applications of high school subjects applied to the pilot's job. Quite effective actually.
