The latest "Valkyrie" trailer is online...

http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/valkyrie.html?showVideo=1

The 'hawk shows up around 20 seconds in -- plus there's also a couple JU-52s and some 109s sprinkled throughout.

I do believe that was Lord Xenu piloting the P-40. But hey, it looks like a good movie!

They used our P-40E and the Planes of Fame's P-40N. The film location was about 20 miles outside Apple Valley.

JCP,
I tried to visit you guys a week ago Thursday on my way back home to Everett from Jerome, please stop and thank the yahoos working on I-84 with tea spoons for doing such a great job of making the Nampa West bound exit so darned inaccesable-isn't it great to see your tax dollars inaction...er in action?

I thought Xenu's craft looked like DC-8s.

But then, everything I know about Scientology I learned from South Park. 8)
