If you want to prepare your preschooler or young grade-schooler for upcoming airplane travel or simply want to demystify those tiny machines they see flying high above them, this tape will do the trick. From explaining vapor trails to showing flight attendants in safety training, this 40-minute tour touches on almost every aspect of airplane travel. It begins with preparation for takeoff of a Swissair MD11 from Atlanta"s Hartsfield Airport, complete with pilot check and baggage handling, and ends in a cloud-banked but smooth landing in Switzerland. The emphasis is on a typical experience; however, the Swiss kitchen tour does show chefs grilling salmon and preparing chocolates from scratch, which may unfairly heighten your child"s expectations of airline food! Although there is a brief tour of the country tagged onto the main body of the tape, stay tuned after the credits for a more thorough, visual-only tour of the country. --Kimberly Heinrichs
