The Disappearance of Flight 412 (1974) is a made-for-television science fiction drama film starring Glenn Ford, Bradford Dillman, David Soul and Guy Stockwell. US Air Force colonel (Ford)has a dilemma on his hands. He knows for a fact that two jets under his command were last seen chasing a UFO. But the military higher-ups have no intention of filling Ford in on further developments. Despite these stonewalling tactics, Ford steps up his own investigation and uncovers an insidious right-wing plot to overthrow the government. Bradford Dillman, who has probably made more TV movies than Karen Valentine even, costars in The Disappearance of Flight 412. The film was telecast two months after Watergate, a time in which “conspiracy” movies were breeding like rabbits.

Robot Pilot (1941) is an American aviation spy-fi romantic screwball comedy film directed by William Beaudine. The film stars Forrest Tucker in his second film and in his first leading role and features lots of mismatched stock footage of various types of aircraft. A test pilot hooks up with the man who invented a radio-controlled plane. The two try out his new creation with devastating results. They must then begin trying to figure out what went wrong. Their musing is interrupted when a beautiful, selfish socialite shows up.
