Air-to-air combat is one the principle war fighting skills a new pilot must learn. At a massive international air exercise we join crews from several countries as they learn the basics of air combat and what it takes to survive. We also learn about the technology of modern fighter jets.
In order to adapt to the forms of combat that appeared in the early 2000s, specific training centers for those engaged were created. Paratroopers from the four components of the French Army receive intense training at the Airborne Troop School (ETAP) in Pau, in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques. Trainees agreed to be filmed.
They say “the process of learning to fly makes you better at… everything.” So while the obvious goal seems to be getting a license, there are actually many other little goals you can achieve and benefit from along the way. Then we introduce a new host: a popular RVer who explores the curious overlap of those who long to explore in the air as well as on the road.

In this film, first-time father and prize-winning journalist Benoît Bringer investigates whether we should still eat meat. As the population grows and the pressure to provide cheap food increases, there has been a drive towards relentless productivity and industrialized farming. Animal cruelty, major health issues and environmental damage are inevitable consequences. We can all see the problem. But are there alternatives?

A survey of World War II and the pivotal role propaganda played in it.
‘Dieselgate’ made headlines around the world. For deliberately cheating the system, Volkswagen were made to pay a record $20 billion fine. But, as this investigation shows, they were far from the only culprits. We met the researchers who uncovered the cheat devise and investigate the dangers posed by NOx emissions.

From the very first air show held at Rheims, France in 1909 air shows have been the subject of countless numbers of films. This documentary features the displays that have made air shows so successful and memorable.
On the night of June 5th, 1944, a C-47 paratrooper aircraft, nicknamed That’s All, Brother took off from England, to drop Allied fighting men into Normandy, to clear a passage for the tens of thousands of troops lying off the coast. Despite surviving dozens more missions, post war she disappeared. The C-47 that led the invasion armada was either destroyed in Europe, shipped home and broken for parts, or worse still, scrapped and melted.
Airborne soldiers are known as force multipliers because of their unique capabilities. Dropped behind enemy lines they can secure bridges or conduct ambushes. We learn more about what it takes to be a paratrooper at two of the best airborne schools in the world.
Paratroopers are known as force multipliers, shock troops, hell from above. These uniquely trained and incredibly hardy soldiers are tougher, faster and deadlier than normal foot soldiers. They can go where others cannot, jumping from aircraft from as low as 600 feet behind enemy lines in the darkness of night. We join soldiers the members of the famed 82nd Airborne as they train for future combat.
