I'm looking for movies made between 1928 and 1938 or so that have good displays of aircraft in them. Any ones you know of that I should check out? Thanks for any help!

Good luck! Most of the "War Films" produced during the actual war years had really cheezy models instead of actual aircraft. (They were a bit too busy using the real things to fight the war with..)
One of the better post-war films was The Battle of Britain, which was released to DVD fairly recently.

Well, if you watch the British documentary series "Decisive Weapons", one of the episodes was about the Hawker Hurricane. In it was a brief clip from a period newsreel, showing early Mark 1 Hurricanes, with wooden, two-bladed propellors, taxying and in flight.
