The Internet Movie Plane Database

[Chris Brame]

I contribute a fair amount to the Movie Car database

Me too - here's the page I made for The Trap (1959):

At least I gave the Bamboo Bomber its due.

Definitely not Tigers, the wing rake and mix of dihedral and lack is distinctive, as are the 'Moth' style wingtips. Also they're radials, not inverted inline. I don't know what they are though, but they look like it's got a 'Fokker' comma rudder over the triangular fin arrangement - otherwise unlike a Fokker.

The other is certainly a Lockheed Orion, see the Orion tail, cowl and wing plan form.

If it was a real aircraft in For Whom the Bells Toll....My guesses are:

Lockheed Orion (Mantz had one)

Not an Orion, but an Altair or a Sirius with retracts. Dunno 'bout the biplanes...
