Is that the same or similar plane that I saw in a television movie based on real life event, starring Scott Buluk and Robert Loggan (Sorry for misspelling of their surnames)?Β The one about Scott playing a pilot who was to ferry one of those dusting planes all the way from USA to NZ (with refuelling stops on the way) but got lost, and Robert played an airliner pilot who got in contact with Scott and tried to find his plane, finally having found him, guide him to airport. I think the television movie was called "Mercy Mission: Flight 774" or something.
If it is not the same type of plane, oh well, they all look the same to me.

Showed this to my son and he said "DUSTY!" from Planes.
So proud of my Man Cub for his recognition skills.
