AHH - Fighter Squadron- one of Rock Hudsons first movies and the one that got me interested in warbirds.
To this day I find it hard to get excited about a P51 whenever there is a P47 around. The Heavy Metal of warbird fighters

Also coming up on Antenna TV:
Suspense Theatre "The Kamchatka Incident" on June 10, 4:00 AM-5:00 AM (check your listings).
http://affiliate.zap2it.com/tv/suspense ... =antennatvFeatures a DC-7 playing a MATS C-118 and a civil Vampire (whose?) playing a Russian fighter. If you look very carefully during the takeoff scenes, the process footage in the cockpit windows must have been taken at Litchfield Park in the '50s; you can see lots of PB4Ys and a couple PV-2s (maybe footage left over from
Lady Takes a Flyer?).
