LetterGreetings!

WTTW National Productions and APT are pleased to announce the January 2, 2012 release of THE HORSEMEN COMETH.  

 

When it comes to fighter aircraft, the legendary P-51 Mustang of World War II tops the list. Since those historic times, no one has attempted to harness the grace and power of these wild stallions and ride them locked in step as a formation aerobatic team ... until now. The new documentary THE HORSEMEN COMETH introduces viewers to the intrepid pilots who fly the historic "Stang," and takes us along on a breathtaking ride.   

 

For the past two years, the world's most respected aviation storytellers at AirShowBuzz.com have followed the journey of three renowned air show pilots as they attempt to tame the mighty "Stang" and showcase its heritage at air shows around the world. Now, in one hour, viewers experience the ride of their life.  THE HORSEMEN COMETH, shot in stunning, never-before-captured HD photography, pulls us behind the scenes, throws us in the cockpit and propels us into the skies. We hurtle 400 mph straight to the ground in a wild heart-pounding ride of risk and reward.   

 

Besides the incredible flight segments, THE HORSEMEN COMETH goes behind the scenes with the pilots, World War II veterans who flew the Mustangs during the war and with James Horner, the award-winning composer who wrote the score for this special. Fly with "The Horsemen" and discover for yourself why they say the Mustang is the "ultimate skeleton key that opens all doors to life's adventure."
