Warbird Information Exchange

Don't feel alone, it got into me too! I tried locating a copy of this long time ago and nobody had one. Thanks for the links

One day I'll get that P-40!

"Birds of Prey" is also available on VHS and DVD if you look around. They did re-edit the audio at the opening of the film. In the original, Janseen was singing "Boom-Boom didum-dadum-wadum-choo" while flying during the credits and I guess the copyright for the song ran out so they edited a crappy '40's tune. You can see him singing something, but it doesn't really ruin the film.

If you want to see some more great helicopter flying, find a copy of "Deadly Encounter" with Larry Hagman as a helio pilot flying south of the border! There are some clips on YouTube.

Also semi-famous for a scene where they land their Hughes at an "Arizona airplane graveyard" to hide from the bad guys. It's actually Pima Air Museum in the old days...with the yellow signs in from of the exhibits. Might be fun to see that.

Bonus point trivia...what 80s popular non-aviation film featured the Museum...in this case also posing as D-M or a civil "boneyard"?
Answer...the Tucson-set teen comedy.."Money can't buy me love".

I figure if you wanted my opinion on items unrelated to this forum, you'd ask for it.

Love that movie! Someone just uploaded the whole movie to Youtube. I've been trying to locate a copy of this movie for a while. Here's a link to it on Youtube
