Studio One: “The Pilot”/CBS-TV, 1956Includes commercial for Westinghouse washing machines and preview of “Meet the Landlady's Daughter.” This film is also listed in the “Studio One” Films finding aid on this website. 16mm, b&w, 60 minutes : A romanticized version of the life of Sister Mary Aquinas, O.S.F., “The Flying Nun,” which traces her career, 1930-1956. The film concentrates on her efforts to “serve the need of the times” and to “keep one step ahead” of the inquiring minds of her students. This leads her to study aeronautics and get a pilot's license before World War II. She helps to establish over 500 aviation clubs in the U.S. and trains adults for government service for the Civil Aeronautics Authority (CAA) during the war. Sister Aquinas appears in person at the end of the film and makes a plea for additional funds for better training of science education teachers.
