Working on cleaning up List Of Shows That Need Summary
I’m operating off of extremely few details because I saw this a long time ago and I was young-
I saw it on an obscure US TV channel some time at or before 2013 if that helps too.
The only key details I remember is there was a kid who flew an airplane or airplane-like vehicle who used an airship as a base of operations. There’s also one scene where he starts sliding when he’s landing so he has to run out of the plane as it’s landing and he lays on his back and laughs about it on the hangar deck once he knows he’s safe. Last detail I know is there’s a scene where the main character works with an old man to fix his airplane’s engine and then goes to fight a deformed bad guy.
I watched Last Exile because the visuals fit the vibe but it wasn’t it ... I’m going to watch the sequel to Last Exile but I’m less optimistic it’s that one I’m think of.
I know these are not a ton of details, but if anyone could lead my in the right direction then I’d have an answer to a question I’ve had for a while!
