I had the privilege of getting to know Cliff Robertson a bit. He was chagrined by some of the technically inaccurate aviation stuff he had had to put up with - such as when throttles get pulled back to add power in "Always"..
He was most proud of "J. W. Coop" - not an aviation film but decent. He produced it and flew his biplane for it - a Jungmann I think.
Borrowed it from Netflix years ago.
I too got to know Cliff Robertson for a bit. I met him at Hilton ranch and we even talked about buying a two place glider for awhile. Then a few years later I saw him on a SW flight from San Jose to Reno, started to chat him up and soon realized he had no idea who I was. Celebrities meet more people in one year than most do in a lifetime. Or so that is what I told myself.
