"I've confirmed, to my satisfaction anyways, that the Ft. Rucker SE-5E is, in fact, the old Tallmantz airplane. This is based on a number of sources through the years. I've updated the Tallmantz aircraft listings."

"Ryan,

Sorry for not getting back to you about the Eberhart logbook. My website listing is incorrect about the current location of 22-296. It seems to have disappeared off the radar screen, though one source shows it now displayed at the U.S. Army Aviation Museum at Ft. Rucker, AL, as "18-0012." This seems plausible but I would like to confirm.

Would it be possible to get scans and/or photocopies of the logbook pages?

Thanks."

"I have a flight log-book signed by Paul Mantz, Jack Knight, Garland Lincoln and Richard "Dick" Rinaldi. It is from an Eberhart SE-5 serial number AS 22-296 / NX4488. The book is from when Paramount pictures owned the plane after it appeared in Howard Hughes "Hells Angels". I am looking to find the aircraft and or owner. Please let me know if there is anyone that I could contact. Feel free to give my email address to anyone that would have information. I have photos if needed."

"Just discovered your great site & found it very informative. Just wanted to let you know I purchased years ago & still own the Paul Mantz's logbooks for the N1203 from 1/53 to 8/53 & 7/55 to 10/57. They are very interesting records of their flights all over the world. If these can be of any help in anyone's research, please feel free to contact me

"I own the Garland Linciln Nieuport 28 LF-1 (N12237). I am restoring it from its last movie "The Great Waldo Pepper" where Frank Pine had an "incident".

I am looking for the whereabouts of the other LF-1's, pictures or stories, other movies or commercials it was in.

"I am writing this because my relative, Thomas Gleason Mooney, was a chief pilot for Tallmantz from about 1968 to 1977. He died in 1978 while flying a small plane near St Thomas in the Carribean. He lost both engines and had to ditch with 7 passengers aboard. He ditched in such a way that the passengers survived, but he died.
I have several pictures of him and would like to sent the best one to this site so it could be shown next to his info."
