HI: Anybody remember listening to Sky King? Seems to me the opening intro was the roar of a low flying aircraft. Penny and Clipper were other characters in the series.<P>Kid stuff, I guess, but it thrilled me as a youngster in the early to mid fifties.<P>Regards,<BR>Ron<P>------------------<BR>

Yes panther, they were both Cessnas, the original was a T-50 and the other a 310B. That may have just been on the TV show, don't know if the make and models were ever mentioned on Radio.<P>------------------<BR>Bill H.
