One of my favorite episodes "King 9 Will Not Return" - it was inspired by the Lady Be Good found in the Libyan desert after being reported missing since the war.

Was there ever a bad twilight zone episode? Damned if I can think of one.

Bad episode? Yup. The one that kept me up all night afraid of the hole that was going to open up in the wall next to my bed.

"Lady Be Good" gone missing after a mission from Libya to Italy and flew 400 miles south beyond their home base. Crew bailed and the plane spiraled in and bellied into the desert. 16 years later they found the plane and 8 of 9 crewmen. God rest their souls.

video of such:


Rumor has it (from night watchmen) that one of the engines from Lady Be Good at the Write Patterson AF museum starts up at 3am.


And parts from Lady Be Good that were installed on other aircraft are rumored to have caused the recipient plane to crash. Three such incidents and 10 lost their lives.

"Lady Be Good" > National Museum of the US Air Forceâ„¢ > Display

Scary stuff.

I'm ready for this sort of open carry.
