Default The movie: Always

Yeah, I saw that one (the A-26 from the movie) for sale on Ebay a few weeks
ago. It was only on for a short time and disappeared. Really neat plane,
but I couldn't afford the gas and oil, nevermind the price and restoration
;-(

The A-26 tankers that you saw are sitting right here on the field at BIL.
The owner and pilot who flew them in the movie just died a few weeks ago.
He owned the local Cessna FBO until just a few years ago when he and his
partners sold it. He owned two A-26's and they have been for sale for a
long time. One is painted up in military colors and is the more valuable
one. The one used in the movie is still painted that way and is parked
outside for all to see.
