remember sky king from childhood , now 67 , never thought I would get to see it again , all I really remembered was the plane . . thank you for this , good memories..
Dad, my brother and I met Mr. Grant at a fly-in at Hermiston, Oregon abut 1959-1960. He flew the 310 in and my dad always admired him, as he was an actual pilot in a world of Hollywod fakes. Someone in the family has the 8mm reel-ro-reel film of us with Mr. Grant next to the Songbird.
WOW 🤗I Had Forgotten All About "SKY KING" Was right up there with the/ Lone Ranger / Davie Crockett / The Adventures of " SUPER MAN" / Rin Tin Tin / Lassie Dick Tracy / Popeye The Sailor Man / Mighty Mouse / ZORRO ! DiD i Forget Any ?🤔
I pestered my Mom to get a box of "Rice-Chex"-because there was a plastic model plane-at the Bottom of the pack,--these thing tasted like "wet-cardboard"--I refused to eat this stuff,-& my Mom said--"I bought a large pack for you,-you little bastard,-& your gonna eat every-piece,till you get to that plane !!"--even though-that stuff gave me "Diareaha"-it took me 2 months to get to that-Plane-& two doc.bill for my Mom-!!-those were the days !!

I remember sitting with my mother and father watching this show 60 years ago 12/9/24 I,m now 71 years old
didn't remember Sky King being so old....he is about 50
I have a picture of myself sitting on Sky King's lap at the Oregon State fair in the early sixties. Cost a dollar.

I remember watching this show when I was growing up and the show about a chopper
That was called “Whirlybirds” if I remember correctly
I like looking for scenes from the High Desert.
Nice dawg! Wasn't that Rin Tin Can?

Hehe 50 is definitely knot 🪢 old
Not anymore. Wait 'til you look BACK on 50...
As a kid watching back then I would have guessed he's an old 30 something. Now that I'm 80 I can see that he was an old 50 something.
Hopefully they swept those filming sets for Mojave rattlers. Ouch!
