Greetings rammjaeger..
A real classic! Thank you for the post! Who would have guessed that air combat could be so much fun??

Breathtaking! When I was watching the disappointing Indiana Jones IV, I was thinking how much a better movie would have been a "Indianan Jones and the Lost World" miximg Inca piramids with a dinosaurs. This serial looked like something similar really cool and I hope Peter Jackson does something similar!

Yes, Robert! "Hallucinated" is the right word!
I would like to see more.
No chance for "Indiana Jones"!

I don't know 'bout youse guys, but my heart's all atwitter just waiting for the next chapter. Why, Captain Midnight pales in comparison. See you next week at the matinee.
BTW, was every Zeppelin supplied with a tenor?

Hi,
For those who haven't figured it out, this is a wonderful Youtube mash-up of clips from assorted old movies and serials, including "Hell's Angels,", "Dawn Patrol,", "Ace Drummond," "Dick Tracy", and the silent classic "The Lost World" (based on Arthur Conan Doyle's story), among others. The singer of Give Me a Ship and a Song is Ace Drummond (John "Dusty" King); I was kinda happy when that deadly Muranian flying wing showed up to stop his vocalizing!
The same creative genius also has made "Zeppelins and Pterodactyls: The Lost Cartoon". Precious few Zepps or Pterosaurs, but some pretty cool dive bombers and Nazi U-boats:

Yeah. It's kinda fun trying to pick out what bits and pieces came from where.
The cartoon one made me want to put on my jammies with the feet on them and sit in front of the TV while eating a big bowl of cereal. It's my Saturday morning childhood all over again.

Gotta love those dive-bombing B-26 Marauders, complete with laser (?) guided ordnance!
This time it's true: "They don't make 'em like THAT anymore!"
