Audience Member Secret Service of the air 1939 Ronald Ragan It was surprising when the plane dumped out the passengers in the cargo section like a bomb door. Pacific Transport Aircraft pilot Bancroft found with counterfeit money after trip Bancroft on a spy mission in prison to find information. Warden knows. The prisoners try for a car escape that looks pretty extreme. Even stunts are amazing. It looked pretty amazing with the car chase even if changing cloths while driving was kind of outrageous. Land a job with the air taxi at Alcatraz prison. The film has several fist fights sequences. I think that it is one of the better Ronald Reagan films. The problem I have with the film is that the Bad guys were not very well written. This film is about Ronald Reagan trying to do negotiations to determine and obtain money plates to stop counterfeiters.
