I believe Coonts sold the Cannibal Queen several years ago.


Mr. Coonts said, "I am often asked if I still own the Queen, that

marvelous
1942 Stearman biplane that stars in the book. Alas, Deborah and I sold her
in December, 1998, and recycled the money into other airplanes. Whenever
Deborah and I go flying these days, which is every chance we get, we go in
our 1978 Cessna T-310. Or our 1946 Piper J-3 Cub. Or in our experimental
plane, a Breezy. Or in our brand new 1953 Cessna 170B."
[Pulled from www.stephencoonts.com]


He must go through airplanes the way some teenagers go through cars.

Christopher Reeve was a glider pilot, don't know if he flew powered
aircraft as well.

While contemplating a "Celebrity Pilot's Suite" (or something like that) I
was just absent-mindedly searching the FAA database for movie stars, and
found this:
*******************************************
Name : JOLIE, ANGELINA
Airman's Address : 1990 S BUNDY DR
LOS ANGELES, CA, 90025-5240
FAA Region : Western/Pacific
Date of Medical : Jun, 2004
Class of Medical : 3
Expiration of Class 3 privileges : Jun, 2007
Airman Certificates : Student Pilot
: Private Pilot (foreign based)
Airplane Single Engine Land
*******************************************
Any idea what the "Private Pilot (foreign based)" is all about? Does this
mean she's certificated in other countries that our own FAA doesn't
recognize as legit?

I know Harrison Ford and Tom Cruise are pilots, but can you list any others?

Anyone know how to get in touch with these folks? I presume the addresses
listed in the database really aren't where they live, but it would be fun to
have pictures of each celebrity pilot in the suite, preferably
autographed...

Any ideas?

I didn't have that box on mine. You must use an AME with the "special"
forms.
