Movie Reviews of One Six Right
Movie Review: Moving & inspiring
Summary: 5 Stars
If you've ever dreamed of flying, if you know someone who's a pilot, or if you're a pilot yourself, you MUST see this movie. It's really a love story -- between the pilots and their airplanes, between fathers and their sons (and daughters) who followed their dreams, and between a community and its airport, in this case VNY, Van Nuys Airport in California. The history of the airport parallels that of general aviation in this country, and it is this history that the movie seeks to tell. Although there are some famous names in the credits, they are not the stars -- and refreshingly, Brian Terwilliger treats them with no more (but no less) honor than the other less famous pilots featured in the film.
It is clear that Terwilliger is passionate about his subject -- everything about the film shows a loving admiration for the men and women who lived the history of aviation in this country and in Southern California. The cinematography is simply spectacular, and the sweeping score adds to the breathtaking aerial shots. The film's message is clear from the beginning: general aviation, and general aviation airports, are national treasures we should all work to preserve.
Recommended without any reservations whatsoever.
Movie Review: ONE SIX RIGHT / THE ROMANCE OF FLIGHT
Summary: 5 Stars
I SAW THIS ON A PBS BROADCAST HERE ON THE EAST COAST ABOUT A MONTH BACK. THE VAN
NUYS AIRPORT AND VALLEY PILOTS IN PERTIQULAR ARE MY SECOND ALMA MATRE SO THE DVD
IS QUITE SIGNIFICANT TO ME. HISTORICALLY IT IS AN UNPARALELLED PRODUCTION BUT IT
ALSO CONTAINS PLENTY OF VINTAGE EYE CANDY. NOTABLY THE RED BIPLANE WAS USUALLY IN
THE EAST END OF THE VALLEY WHEN I WAS HEADING TO THE HIGH DESERT. THIS IS A GREAT
PRESENTATION ON THE PLIGHT OF GENERAL AVIATION FRAMED IN THE HISTORY OF VAN NUYS
AIRPORT. I BOUGHT BOTH ONE SIX RIGHT AND ONE SIX LEFT THE COMPANION DVD WHICH
SHOWS THE PROCESS OF GETTING THIS PROJECT COMPLETED. HAVING FLOWN OUT OF VNY I
WAS CURIOUS AS TO HOW THE CLEARANCES WERE OBTAINED TO GET SOME OF THE SHOTS; IN
PERTIQULAR THE VINTACE CONTINENTAL D/C ON FINAL APPROACH AS WELL AS HOW A $[...] STOOL
FROM HOME DEPOT IS WORHT 250 K. TERWILLAGER PRODUCTIONS MUST BE COMMENDED FOR A FABULOUS PRODUCTION. I THOUGHT THAT THAT PART OF MY LIFE WAS CLOSED UNTIL I VIEWED THIS PRODUCTION; I HAD TEARS IN MY EYES FOR MOST OF IT-SEE TRAILER [...]
THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES BRIAN. REGARDS R.V.DEVLIN
Movie Review: One Six Right - A Slobbering Love Affair With Flight
Summary: 5 Stars
As someone who has Desperately wanted a PAC (Private Airman's Certificate), CFI (Certified Flight Instructor) and all ratings including "Glider" and low-level Class III (3.6 - 6.5 G) Aerobatic Waiver I first watched it through NetFlix. While I am trying to find someone who will take a small but valued collection of aviation books and videos (none of the local FBOs [Fixed Base Operators] shows any interest!), no matter what happens to the collection, One Six Right and One Six Left (as well as the soundtrack) are staying with me. Sadly, I can no longer earn my PAC or any ratings due to epilepsy and finances. Brian Terwilliger is unable to earn his because of color blindness. I will never lose my appreciation for General Aviation thanks to films like this. The Nathan Wang score is also fantastic. This is a MUST BUY for anyone who has ever even Dreamed of pushing a stick and a pair of rudder pedals - much less Earned stick time in sailplanes and Cessna trainers. Meigs Field should never have happened.Movie Review: Capturing the Skies.
Summary: 5 Stars
Sometimes in these busy times the romance of aviation can be forgotten and we need to be reminded of the sheer joy that can be derived from the amazing experience of flight.
One of the greatest examples of capturing the pure essence of flight can be found in the film, "One Six Right" by Terwilliger Productions. Set at the amazing Van Nuys Airport, the film absorbs the vast diversity of personalities and aviation hardware that constitute such an airfield. Narrated in the words of aviators and set to an emotive soundtrack, the film footage is nothing short of spectacular. From biplanes with beautiful backdrops to passes by glistening Mustangs, this film brings the three dimensions of the sky into the world of one and all; not just those privileged to take to the skies.
Through vision, words and music, "One Six Right" reminds us all why the sky is such a special place.

Movie Review: I was pleasantly surprised
Summary: 5 Stars
While channel surfing I came across this program. I remembered my daughter, who lives in Woodland Hills California, told me she drives her car to the Van Nuys airport to park for a fraction of the price she would be charged at LAX. The program was already around a half hour in progress and caught my attention. I found another date where the program was broadcast and recorded it on the DVR. Rather than take up space on a temporary recording medium, it only made sense to own the DVD.
The photography is wonderful, the interviews are extremely interesting. The information on the disappearance of general aviation airports is sitmulating -- I especially enjoyed the expose' of what Mayor Daly had done to the Chicago lakeside airport -- almost criminal.
Beyond the spectacular photography, the music is also memorable. I haven't purchased the music CD yet, but I just might.
