What's on TV? Tuesday, October 18, 1966

There's a documentary on KSBW at 7:30 p.m. called The Epic of Flight, part of the Time-Life series of TV specials. (Not to be confused with The Epic of Flight series of books, published by Time-Life.) I have very vague memories of having seen this back in Minneapolis, primarily because I was interested in airplanes, especially those used in World War I. (Good fodder for a six-year-old.) Nowadays you'd see something like this on the History Channel or one of its clones, although it would probably be five or six minutes shorter because of commercials, and you'd lose another few minutes spent recapping what happened before the commercials. (If you've seen a History Channel doc you'll know what I mean.) I think this would easily win the evening for me, as opposed to the documentary on men in prisons that CBS is showing. Anyway, find your favorites from this Northern California edition.
