Both Fort Worth Flyovers are shot by helicopter and feature aerial views of the city, primarily the downtown area. Fort Worth Flyover II begins with a leisurely daytime view of the city, as well as a CareFlite air ambulance helicopter flying below. The audience is then zoomed around Fort Worth at night, followed by a similarly speedy daytime view.
Flyover II, like its predecessor, ends with a shot hovering over the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History itself, where a crowd waves and cheers from the roof near the Noble Planetarium's dome (in the later film, decorated as a volcano to promote for the Omni's 1992 engagement of Ring of Fire).
The building pictured in the flyover was demolished in late 2007 to make room for a new museum facility, to be built on its existing site. An updated version of the flyover will likely be produced when the Museum opens its new building in fall 2009.

Famous quotes containing the word content:
“Let us have a fair field! This is all we ask, and we will be content with nothing less. The finger of evolution, which touches everything, is laid tenderly upon women. They have on their side all the elements of progress, and its spirit stirs within them. They are fighting, not for themselves alone, but for the future of humanity. Let them have a fair field!”
—Tennessee Claflin (1846–1923)
“In most modern instances, interpretation amounts to the philistine refusal to leave the work of art alone. Real art has the capacity to make us nervous. By reducing the work of art to its content and then interpreting that, one tames the work of art. Interpretation makes art manageable, conformable.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“In Paris, everybody wants to be an actor; nobody is content to be a spectator.”
—Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
