Take to the Skies with Earthflight
Take to the skies with Earthflight as it soars with the true masters of the air on a breathtaking journey across six vast continents. On the wings of birds, it experiences the world's greatest sights and natural spectacles as never before.

To create its bird's-eye view of the world Earthflight uses a host of extraordinary filming techniques including filming "imprinted" flocks from microlites, wild flocks filmed from model gliders and silent drones, full-sized helicopter with stabilised mounts and cameras on the backs of trained birds.

The last programme in the series will explain many of the techniques used to make Earthflight and the extraordinary relationships between people and birds that made it possible fly on the wings of birds.
