There is also "Cloud Dancer" starring Keith Carradine, Jennifer O'Neil

suffer some physical damage from his strenuous routines and has to
decide what his future will be.

There's also drug running in there somewhere and a "dogfight" between
a P-51 Mustang (fully armed), and a Cherokee (I think it was a
Cherokee).

Lots and lots of flying action, but I don't think the film is
available anymore.

Hi Corky,

There was a movie called "Wings of Fire" wiht Suzanne Pleshette and james
Farentino. Pleshette's "father" owned a struggling aero operation and
Pleshette flew P-51's in races.

You got to see some pretty good P-51 flying, F*F Bearcat flying and, of
course....

Susan Pleshette ;^)
