Metro Aviation began in 1982 as a helicopter charter, flight-training, and maintenance operation. The restored experience follows that enterprise through operations control, engineering, fabrication, avionics, maintenance, training, and flight support.

01 / Begin

Begin with the enterprise.

A cultural and panoramic record of the people, skilled trades, ingenuity, and service behind a Shreveport aviation enterprise.

02 / Listen

Hear the people and disciplines behind flight.

Keep the original text, audio, film, and panorama structure intact, then rebuild the interface around them with horizontal scene navigation, a docked narration player, expandable transcripts, keyboard controls, and a complete text-and-audio edition.

03 / Follow

See how technical work becomes public service.

A dual-purpose cultural record and restored company tour: one frames the human story of a family enterprise, while the other preserves the detailed commissioned experience in a clearer and more accessible form.
