Question
This is a 50s movie about navy pilots flying panther jets
from an american carrier. In this movie one of the pilots
is blinded by enemy fire and two other pilots get their
wing tips under his wings and helps him back to the carrier.
I saw this when I was about twelve years old, and would love to see it again if it is available. Don't spend a lot of time on this, but if you should come across anything please let me know.   Thank you from a war movie and airplane love,  Wayne

Answer
Hello again Wayne,

An Internet colleague of mine has come up with the answer for you. The film was called "Men Of The Fighting Lady" (1954) and it was based on a newspaper article called "The Case Of The Blind Pilot". www.amazon.com have a few VHS copies available. Have a look at the following site.....
