Default Sky King!

O.K. . . . the fingers are faster than the eye . . .

Would the original poster PLEASE repost all the links to the Sky King
series? Is there a web site one can go to for these?

Thanks -- jim

Thanks. They are super. I sent the links to people I know who are
trying
to learn English as a second language. The plots are good, the dialogue
crisp and clear, no worry about profanity, etc. There are more uses for
this kind of nostalgia than you imagined, Tom in Pensacola

Oh yah ... Sky King. I had the hots for Penny from about 1955 on .....
Sky King was one of several reasons that I started flying lessons when I
was 14. I wanted to do Penny so bad ... anyway ...





Penny (Gloria Winters) will be 75 on Wednesday.




By the way, I know that the real trivia-minded amongst us will remember
hearing "Sky King, Sky King -- Do Not Answer -- " followed by a bunch of
phonetic alphabet letters .. heard on the HF Shortwave bands. That was
the one-way recall message sent to our USAF Nuke carrying aircraft
circling at the "Alpha Point" just on the other side of Soviet Air Space.

Cheersd,

Dave
