This is a compilation of silent newsreels and home movie footage from the 1929 National Air Races in Cleveland, Ohio, which comes from the collection of Cliff Henderson. Henderson was one of the founders of the National Air Races, along with his brother. What is extraordinary about this movie is that it contains rare shots of Charles Lindbergh attending the Air Races, as well as spectacular footage of the finish of the Women's Air Derby. Known as the Powder Puff Derby, it was won by Louise Thaden. Numerous other female pilots are shown including Florence Poncho Barnes.
