  • "Summary: Based on a design by Bill Lear, the Challenger is a Canadian-built executive jet that set out to be faster, cheaper to fly and more comfortable than any other aeroplane of its kind. By focusing on a number of the key individuals involved, this film traces the history of the plane and shows how the production team strove to fulfil the commitments made by an American team of supersalesmen, who had marketed and sold a large number of the aircraft while it was still on the drawing board. It highlights the various milestones along the way, from the initial decision to embark upon the project until the first test flight, and in the process illustrates how such a commercial venture was tackled and brought to a successful conclusion. Awards: International Film Festival, San Francisco."@en
