FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

JFS Films, LLC Begins Taping On Across the Sahara

Alexandria, VA -- August 18, 2001 -- Producer John Schwally began taping today for the documentary film Across the Sahara.  The project's first two interviews were "Pan Africa" co-author Col. Thomas Culbert (USAF-ret.) and the Smithsonian Institution's National Air & Space Museum curator for air transport R.E.G. (Ron) Davies.  These two interviews will provide the historical vantage point to coincide with personal accounts from Pan American Airways - Africa veterans to be interviewed at a later date.  Outside financing has yet to be secured for the project, however, due to the age of the surviving veterans (many well into their 80's and 90's), Mr. Schwally has given the green light to begin production as soon as possible.

JFS Films, LLC, is an independent television production company established by veteran PBS Producer and Production Manager John Schwally to create quality television programming for broadcast and cable distribution nationwide and internationally.  Currently in production is the documentary Across the Sahara that chronicles the little known story of Pan American Airways -Africa, Ltd. And its contributions to the Allied war effort in World War II.
