Media Number A0910_069
Description Color video of an episode of "Extreme Machines" by The Learning Channel aired in July of 1998. Director: Alice Harper. Narrator: William Hootkins. Writer: Alice Harper. Editor: Gordon Hayden. Producer: Kirstie McLure. Produced by Pioneer Productions for The Learning Channel. The documentary covered attempts by Craig Breedlove and Andy Green to set the land speed record in 1997. There are also details on the 1979 successful attempt to break the sound barrier by Stan Barrett, driving the "Budweiser Rocket" at Bonneville Speedway. Because this run did not conform to international (FIA) rules for setting records, it was not counted as such. Also a segment on supersonic flying.
