H.G.Wells "Things to come". Made in 1936, I first saw it as a child on TV in the very early 50's. The use of flying wings as combat aircraft really impressed me. I had seen pictures of them in a dictionary,but when I saw my first one in real life it really hit me.

I lived in Chula Vista, California at the time and just to the east of us on Otay Mesa was Brown Field Naval Air Station. They flew a lot of experimental aircraft out of there at the time and there was always some sort of strange aircraft in the sky. Just after seeing "Things to Come" , a flying wing flew over the house. And for those that say they were all destroyed by that time,no they weren't.I decided then that I had to live to see 2036,where the movie ended, to see what life was going to be like.

By the way, Brown Field is the airport where Reba McEntire's band was lost when their plane slammed into Otay Mountain.
