I have this movie on video.

It's a nice kids movie. Peter who is in a wheelchair dreams about to be a pilot. His class is busy with making a musical, in which they people to fly.

He comes around Qerinus Drijfhout, which is an inventor. He is inventing a device, which he can make things fly.

Since the movie is from 1977, the special effects are outdated and it is clearly visible that it's fake. However, never-the-less, it's a wonderful movie to watch from our famous kids film director "Karst van der Meulen" and it gives some sentiments from my youth.

it's a long time ago when I saw this movie for the last time.

I can remember the plot being about a Inventor who creates a machine (imagine the machine from honey I shrunk the kids)which gives everything in it's beam the power to float of fly... take your pick.

Peter is the young friend of that inventor and by accident he left behind a bag of gum-balls. after an accident the gum-balls turn into "everyone who eats the gum-balls end up flying"Gumballs.

The auto-bus comes into play when Peter goes on a school trip by auto-bus and accidentally drops one of those gum-balls inside the bus. this is what makes the bus fly...

I forgot the rest of the movie, but this is by my memory the plot of the movie... haven't seen it in 20 years tho!
