    I have seen this trailer and also thought, wow, that’s a Pembroke. Pembrokes (mostly ex Belgian Air Force) were indeed used in the USA by drug runners so the movie makers look like they did their homework. The book by Berkeley Rice “Trafficking – The boom and bust of the Air America Cocaine Ring” is an excellent read with plenty of Pembroke references. There are NO Pembrokes currently flying anywhere. There are a few potential flyers in the UK and USA but that’s it. So I am guessing a CGI Pembroke, I may have to watch the movie!

    I am a volunteer at Brooklands Museum in Surrey, we have two Viscount slipper tanks that arrived with G-APIM, we did fit them to G-APIM in the early 90s but removed them later as they were never used on this aircraft. The Viscount team have just rescued one of them from deep storage and plan to refurbish it for display.
