Ancient Aviators (aka Ancient Flight)

Season 1 · Apr 24, 1977 · 30m

In this episode we investigate the mysterious markings on the plains of Nazca in Peru. What are these mysterious markings, who made them, and why? Were they an ancient landing field for aliens? The signs and symbols of various birds and insects are only discernible from the air. How then could the ancient Nazca's have made them unless they had an aerial view in which to work them out? What are the mysterious arrow straight lines that seem to lead nowhere and why are they there? These and other strange markings in the area make us wonder who made them and why? Were they man made or did someone else put them there?

Synopsis

In Search of... is a TV series that was broadcast weekly from 1977 to 1982, devoted to mysterious phenomena. It was created after the success of three one-hour TV documentaries produced by creator Alan Landsburg: In Search of Ancient Astronauts in 1973, In Search of Ancient Mysteries and The Outer Space Connection, both in 1975. All three featured narration by Rod Serling, who was the initial choice to host the spin-off show. After Serling's death, Leonard Nimoy was selected to be the host.
