Runtime: 24
InFlight is a short film that aims to bring awareness to the sport of WaterSki Flying aka Waterski Jumping. A handful of top flyers in the world have come together to work on this project. Our goal is to show what we do and inspire our viewers to get out on the water and believe that nothing is impossible. The Waterski Community is a very special place for every single person involved in it. We want to bring the community together and show the world how amazing the sport of WaterSki Flying is and what the lifestyle of an elite athlete is all about. As one of the most diverse discipline of action sports in the world, we want to show our viewers what it feels like to hit a 6-ft tall ramp on waterskis while accelerating at 70mph on water. Generally, we sustain 5G’s of force and travel for about 260ft in the air. Every day we do things that have never been done before and put our lives and careers on the line for the future of our sport.

Although TheMovieDB might provide a key to a YouTube video, there is no guarantee that the video might be present at YouTube.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
