At least two BC-191/375s made it into the movies....
In the classic John Wayne "Island In The Sky", it's the main transmitter in a transport plane downed in the snowy reaches of northern Canada during WW2. You also see a BC-348 and a Gibson Girl in action. In the original "Manchurian Candidate", during the climactic scenes where Laurence Harvey goes to the unused spotlight room during the convention, there's a BC-191/375 used as a prop in the room. No connection to the story at all. The set dresser probably thought it looked enough like PA equipment to pass muster. -- The original "Flight of the Phoenix" shows an ART-13 but it is not used in the story. 73 de Jim, N2EY |
