The Flight of the Phoenix is a great movie starring Jimmy Stewart, a real life pilot. In the movie, he is the pilot of a C-119 cargo aircraft that crashes in the desert because of flying into a sandstorm which clogs the engines. One of the survivors, an aircraft designer by trade, proposes the survivors build a new aircraft from parts of the crashed airplane and fly out of the desert. It was remade in 2004 with Dennis Quaid in the role of Jimmy Stewart and though it was a good movie, doesn't live up to the quality of the original. The 2004 version has more action in it where the original is more a drama about how people act in a catastrophic situation. It is more of a compelling, gripping movie in my opinion and a better movie.
**Warning - If you haven't seen this movie, you ought to watch it before reading below and watching this video because it gives away the end of the movie.
In this scene, Jimmy Stewart's character attempts to start the aircraft the survivors put together from the wrecked airplane. If it works, they will be able to fly out of the desert and survive. It' is a montage of the ending of the movie and is a very satisfying, and a little funny, ending.
