Magnum PI- I remember a Hughes 500 used a bunch on that show.
Plot Summary for
"Sky King" (1951)
"From out of the clear blue of the western sky comes Sky King" was the familiar opening to television's premier aviation program. Operating from his Flying Crown Ranch in Arizona, Sky King, his niece Penny and their Cessna 310 airplane "Songbird" were constantly involved in one adventure after another. Viewed by many children in the 1950's, this program was responsible for inspiring many later aviation careers.
I copied the above from a internet movie database. I never saw an episode. It ended long before I was born. I thought I heard that it was a 320 too. The summary above could be wrong about the 310- not that there is much difference. I've flow both, but the oldest I flew was a 1964 model.
The helicopter on Magnum was always cool. Wasn't "TC" the pilot's name?
