 Bio, McKittrick, James C.
The first realization that one of our aircraft might be missing came suddenly when the infantry unit for whom Bill was flying called me at the BTOC.
The infantry officer asked, "Did the aircraft return directly to the brigade heliport for refueling without dropping our passengers off, first?" I immediately called our heliport, about five miles away at Ky Ha, where the operations clerk did a ramp check for the aircraft.
For weeks, whenever any of our aircraft flew near that area, crewmen would fly missions with one eye on the ground and an ear peeled for a rescue signal or Bill's missing aircraft.

When we were approaching the area where he said the aircraft was hidden, we began to receive a lot of automatic small arms fire.
We went home and reported where the aircraft was located, and it was right where we had gotten most of the enemy fire from on the first night of the search for Bill.
CPT Jim Yoho, who was in our unit, gave a lot of us nicknames, and "Clem" was the one that he gave to Bill, and Bill sure hated that nickname.

One of Our Aircraft Is Missing, released in 1942, was the first film Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger made after formalizing their partnership as The Archers, with both taking equal credit for writing, producing and directing.

On his way to the site of the disaster, in Canada, he discovers, to his horror, that the plane he is flying in is of the same type as the one that went down and that it has logged enough airtime to be at risk.
The story concerns successive generations of a British community (selected members of which are played by the same actors, each playing his or her own descendants) and spans an era during which civilization is nearly destroyed by war only to be reborn into a golden age of scientific advancement.

Many of these aircraft will fly again, some in the colors of other countries, while others serve as parts bins for aircraft still active in the inventory.
Some unique aircraft fall into a category all their own, such as the monstrously huge Boeing – Aerospacelines B-337SG “Super Guppy.” As a kid, I actually saw this aircraft and its predecessors fly in regular operations, and it was fun to see it again.
The one aircraft missing though is the P-51.

It doesn’t have to be in that order, although unfortunately it has been.
My first review on this site is the second review I’ve written of ONE OF OUR AIRCRAFT IS MISSING, a superlative WWII thriller made in 1942 by the writing/directing team that also made THE RED SHOES and BLACK NARCISSUS.
But the reviews are completely different and I saw the movie again before writing the second one, so this isn’t cheating.
