Yup. :bonk:
Of course, I really liked Jennifer Jason Leigh as well. :victory:
I just finished watching a documentary. Fabulous life story of Pancho Barnes.
I knew a little about her because of the interest in aviation but I never knew her life as a young girl and that she was a debutante from a fine family in Pasadena.
Her great skills as a pilot and her ranch out in the Mojave desert were the main part of her life I think. What a tremendous life she made for herself. All the old test pilots from Edwards airforce base went to her ranch for R and R after doing hairraising testing of many planes over the desert.
I was happy to hear that she was a friend of Paul Mantz who did so much stunt flying for the movies.
When John Wayne airport was just a small flying field I remember that his statue, when it arrived, was put outside on the walkway and he looked down on all the luggage which we had to claim as we left. That was when airports really were airfields and life was fun and simple for flying.
Next to it was a hangar in which Paul Mantz kept his planes, including one that had belonged to Pancho. I remember one biplane was 'Wonder Fiz' which was in an old James Garner film I think. Going in that hangar was thrilling just to smell the planes and the atmosphere was alive with memories of the early days of flying.
I don't know what happened to all his collection because he died doing a stunt for a movie and then I believe everything was sold off. I wish they had been able to keep it just as it was and make it into a museum.
Nowadays John Wayne is safely housed inside a very modern large building. Nothing stays the same and sometimes it really should not be changed.
Ah well.. Life goes on.
