Douglas DC-3

Although marked with the correct registration N55VM and a close paint scheme, the aircraft shown in the film as the crash aircraft is a Douglas DC-3, not the Convair CV-240 that was actually involved.
True DC-3 airframe data is still under investigation.

Fairchild-Swearingen SA-227AC Metro III
