Sky King
Sky King is an American radio and television series. Its main character was Arizona rancher and aircraft pilot Schuyler "Sky" King.
The series had strong Western elements. Cattle rancher King often captured criminals and spies and found lost hikers, doing so with the use of his airplane, the Songbird. Two twin-engine Cessna airplanes were used by King during the course of the television series. The first was a Cessna T-50 and in later episodes a Cessna 310B was used until the end of the series. The 310's make and model type number was displayed prominently during the closing titles.
King and his niece Penny lived on the Flying Crown Ranch, near the fictional town of Grover, Arizona. Penny's brother Clipper also appeared during the first season. Penny and Clipper were also pilots, although they were inexperienced and used their uncle for guidance. Later, Penny became an accomplished air racer, rated as a multiengine pilot, whom Sky trusted to fly the Songbird.
