Relaxing Cockpit Aerial Views of the 1930s | 16mm Film Scan

Last of films for shot by Canadian Nickel Magnate Herbert G. Fales. He was also a pilot, from a 1935 Magazine "Maintained a Lockheed Vega and a Stearman sport plane near his New York City headquarters", I believe both planes are used in this footage, which dates to 1936 and 1937.

Footage is about half B&W/half color, although the first bit of color footage is from 1936 and was faded pink so there's not much color left for that ~minute. Aerial footage of a number of areas/cities. Also ends with a nice sunset shot of the NYC skyline from a bridge.
