Is that the same Bearcat owned by the guy who also owned a P-51 that was in a movie starring Suzanne Pleshette and James Faratino I think was called Sky Fire? Suzanne takes off in the Mustang to kill herself only to have James, a war hero chase her in the Bearcat and bring her back down to earth.

John Church's Bearcat N148F in 1967 or later.

The Bearcat in Wings of Fire is N618F. Both Bearcat and Mustang belonged to the late Stan Kurzet. He also owned P-51D N6322T, and in a phone conversation years ago he said he also owned N6362T for a short while before selling it. It later went to Bolivia.
