Training the Cold War top guns

This no frills release from 20th Century Fox is about training the Air Force's top guns during the Cold War. Rex Reason is cast as the unwilling instructor who thinks he ought to be someplace like the Strategic Air Command instead of babying people who ought to know their jobs. These guys will be test pilots so a lot of this instruction in aerodynamics.

One of his students is moving in on Audrey Dalton whom is the base commander Dick Foran's secretary which doesn't sit well with Reason..

The main strength of the film is the air footage shot at Edwards Air Force base. The weakness is the lack of a coherent plot structure.

I'm sure this film was appreciated with 2 cheers from the US Air Force.
