Celebration of Flight is about a very rare sort of adventurer you are unlikely to find today. A film about a pilot who flew sheiks and kings like Haille Selassie or the king of Yemen.

And about a unique friendship between a 78 year old Swede and a 16 year old native boy from the Caribbean Sea. They share one desire for which they are willing to sacrifice everything: to develop and build their very own aircraft.
