I was thinking of this pilot before you posted it, as I remember seeing it.
The full pilot episode of the Boeing investigation was also on YouTube somewhere, I remember seeing that too.
This pilot was ultimately successful, in a way, as CNN did launch Your World Today with Cyril and Isa - although the programme with similar, elements of it were also quite different, which shows how far programme concepts can evolve from initial pilot to regular production stage. The pilot was also in a totally different studio - I believe it was Atlanta’s Studio 7, whereas the actual show eventually came from CNN London.
