Scenic views and aerial shots of 1960’s San Francisco. A small airplane, with NII39D painted on the side, approaches a runway from the air and lands. A woman stands next to the plane as a man fills the plane’s gas tank up. Aerial shots of the city, which include views of the bay bridge, the skyscrapers of downtown, the embarcadero/the piers, and the civic center/ city hall. A shot looking out over the bay (with a a view of either Alcatraz or Angel Island in the distance) pans to the pier. On the pier, with a view of the city in the background, a man sits in a blue car and a boy stands outside the car, both of them with fishing lines out over the railing.
