# Supersonic Spies

Find out what really happened at the 1973 Paris air show, where both the Anglo-French Concorde and the Soviets' similarly designed TU-144 took off in a supersonic debut. What caused the Soviet plane to nose-dive and explode in mid-air with the whole world watching--killing its crew, eight civilians and any chance for the plane's commercial success? Why have neither the French nor the Russian government ever issued a full report? Here's a true tale of cold war espionage that has all the makings of a world-class intrigue. 1 videocassette (approximately 60 min.) : 1/2 in VHS Narrator: Will Lyman Cinematographers, Jonathan Harrison \[and others\] ; editors, Rod Iverson, Eric Handey ; music, Ray Loring Originally broadcast as part of the television series NOVA
