Just finished watching the series "Turbulent Skies" (a/k/a "King of the Skies").
A dramatization of the development of KLM airlines, from a partnership (?) of two Dutchmen, Anthony Fokker and Albert Plesman.
Excellent CGI for the a/c no longer extant, and a detailed depiction of the civilian vs military issues, the personal crises of each man's family, and the relentless push toward war by the Weimar military and Reich.
For starters, look up "Lipetsk".
Great series!
