Short promotional film made for KLM Royal Dutch Airlines in the 1970s. It’s a rare and fascinating little documentary on the various goings-on at Schiphol Airport, home base of KLM: checking in, tax free shopping, a ground stewardess giving information, pilots doing checks in the cockpit, a plane taking off and a plane landing by night.
Sound is mostly atmospheric, so the soundtrack is not really in a specific language. There is almost no lipsync sound, and apart from the speaker in the departure hall, there is little or no Dutch to be heard.
Color has partly faded, but is still pretty nice in many scenes, with some yellows and blues still present.
Please note: this film has to be played at 18 fps.
Released by KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, as De start van uw vliegreis.
