I saw a bit of a low-budget WWII movie a few months ago on TV. The part
I saw had some agent being picked up at a remote airfield to be taken into
or out of Germany. The plane came in to get her (I think the agent was a her),
and it was a Cessna 206. Can't get much more accurate than that.
There's also a scene in the Pearl Harbor movie "Tora Tora Tora" where a
Jeep drives down a pier next to a ship. The Jeep has Warn hubs on it.
