Clark did a bang up job on this montage. This has been a favorite film of mine since I was a kid....It has yet to be surpassed - and never will be.
The only REAL flaw was that tarted up Ryan PT22 that Toomey was ferrying on behalf of the RAF....
"I'd sure hate to have one of those babies on my tail" exclaims one of the pilots.....He'd need only need worry if he were riding on a kite.
Curtiz and Flynn hated each other but he could sure coax a good performance out of my favorite bad boy.

The Grumman fighters had manually-retracted wheels--up thru the F4F model.....
