Dear Friends:

A few short years ago we created this message box on our home page, asking for your help to keep this site up and running. In that time, many of you have generously donated to our PayPal account and we are forever grateful. With your help, we've been able to make the necessary upgrades to our server to keep the site running more smoothly than ever!

The meager ad revenue generated by this site isn't sufficient to cover the annual cost of running the server, and we who manage it have never made money from it.

In an effort to continue serving the needs of aviation enthusiasts around the world, we continue to ask for donations to keep this site up and running. If you're still enjoying this website and would like to help us continue being the BEST site on the Internet for your aviation screenshot needs, please consider donating.

Thank you,
Tobin & Rush

Boeing 247D seen in The Saint in New York .


The Boeing 247 was an early United States airliner, considered the first such aircraft to fully incorporate advances such as all-metal semi-monocoque construction, a fully cantilevered wing and retractable landing gear. Other advanced features included control surface trim tabs, an autopilot and deicing boots for the wings and tailplane. The 247 first flew on February 8, 1933 and entered service later that year. It was operated mostly by several United States airlines, but also by few foreign airlines such as Lufthansa, Canadian Pacific Airlines and the Columbian airline SCADTA. A number of aircraft were produced as C-73 military aircraft for the Royal Canadian Air Force and USAAF.

This page lists all films that feature a variation of the Boeing 247.
