Thank you Jetranger, this one I had not seen. You left out Lightning the german shepherd, the very best actor. Excellent movie!!

OK, Jean,,, that'll be 75.00 for De' pop corn, sody pop and the Movie

and now for sum interesting Factola' !!!

The plane that Cary Grant's character flew was a "Lockheed Sirius" ,,,,

the plane Myrna Loy's character flew in the flight from Moscow to NY was a Lockheed Vega.

The role of Myrna Loy in the movie is inspired by the real life aviator, Amelia Earhart.

Are you Sirius, Jetranger??

Jean, I'm NEVER Sirius

even when ya think I'm being Sirius,, Circus, sear'us, sirus ?

I didn't find any free (or shareware) Lockheed 8A Sirius for FS2004, the closest I downloaded was a Lockheed 8D Altair (modified Sirius with retracting gear):

Nope don't think there is one out there Jean, I looked too, on 7 different flight sim web sites.

tho I did message an Aircraft developer about making a high quality version, he liked the photo and movie I sent, and said he'd never seen such a plane as that one, when they get around to it, they might be interested in making it, tho other projects are in the making right now.

be a nice little Racer plane to have in my Vintage Aircraft Hanger


Jean, you can make that model out of paper and color it, and use sum glue and have yourself an airplane !
