Aircraft flying in formation, 1937

Under a heavy dark cloud bank edged with bright cumulus, a formation of a dozen aircraft passes overhead, followed by a second group in tight vee formation lower down; the camera follows them as they cross the sky and grow small. Hermann Göring had revealed the existence of the Luftwaffe in March 1935; by 1937 its Condor Legion was already bombing and fighting in the Spanish Civil War.
