I have a soft spot for the Tribals ever since I built Revell's old Ark Royal + Ashanti combo way, waaaaay back in the day!

RGL, Right now on TCMovies is a title "The Flying Fleet".  It's a silent film from 1929 that has footage of "Langley" with a full flight deck.  From 70 minutes on there is flight ops with biplanes.
