Nearly on topic.
Many years back there was a ‘private detective’ type programme on TV that featured in the opening credits a shot of a Privateer decending vertically to a presumably inevitable coming-together with the ground.
Anyone else remember this? I’d guess around 1961-4 which rules a few of you out.

Does ‘The Investigators’ 1961, starring James Franciscus and Mary Murphy ring a bell?
