The O-47 from Flight of the Phoenix is not the one the Planes of Fame has now, but the Planes of Fame DID build the one in the film. It was used when Paul Mantz crashed the original airplane doing an unnecessary extra "take."

 

[SaparotRob]

I had always assumed he was killed when flying the "Phoenix" or perhaps a stand-in aircraft.

The LongRanger is not a WW2 aircraft so belongs in the post war index - not the WW2 index

 

[GregP]

I had always assumed he was killed when flying the "Phoenix" or perhaps a stand-in aircraft.

Here is the film clip:

 

[MiTasol]

Thanks Greg.

 

[GregP]

You are welcome. Tragic, but the wheels groke through the sand crust and pitched the aircraft tail over nose, as you can see. And, worst of all, the last take was unnecessary as they had the film they needed before the last pass. Seems that way to history but, more likely, they used what they had because there was no more film of it to be gotten.

Douglas A3D-2P Skywarrior Flight Manual (revision). Anyone heard from David, its been six months?

The O-47 from Flight of the Phoenix is not the one the Planes of Fame has now, but the Planes of Fame DID build the one in the film. It was used when Paul Mantz crashed the original airplane doing an unnecessary extra "take."

Here is the video of the crash:

Hi folks,
The Hangar Thirteen website is hosting B-17 (& its equipment) manuals for free download, and asking for a contrib to their project.
Lots of good stuff including turrets, guns, bomb sight, autopilot.
Library – Hangar Thirteen

I'll post the same link on the B-17 manuals thread here:
B-17F/G Manual (One Piece)

Cheers all

P-40B and C parts catalogue - NOT illustrated

According to one source this should be 450 pages but it is only 399. I have not determined which pages are missing, if any. It is also too low a definition to clean properly so I only removed the graffiti. Converting to black and white made some parts unreadable. I have OCR'd it but a lot of...
