In the longer version at about 8:15 there's the famous scene of the plane flying through a hangar. That hangar is called the Butler hangar and happens to be right next to my hangar, built a few years after this movie was made. It's a bit rusty and needs a little work but it still houses a few planes for the Pacific Coast Air Museum at KSTS, Santa Rosa, CA. It's the second most famous landmark at the airport. You can see it on Google Maps here. It's fun to point it out to friends and visitors but they need to be a bit older to remember seeing that movie.
