[WWI] Movie "Death Hunt" Brisfit????

[Joel Christy]

Hi Tom,
   
  The film you mention  ostensibly tells the story to capture one Albert Johnson,a murderer, in Canada's biggest manhunt in 1931-32. He was known as the Mad Trapper of Rat River and the Mounties pulled in Wilfred"Wop" May(almost Manfred's 81st victim) to help in the seach. But as far as I know no Brisfit was ever used and in fact it was a monoplane, probably a Fairchild. It's just Hollywood again making a balls up of history. 'Nuff said.
   
  Don't know wheere the movie F2B came from.
   
  Cheers,
   
  Joel

Watched bits of a Charles Bronson movie Death Hunt about a manhunt in the
Youkon. Featured a guy trying to track him down in a F.2B painted red with
cream wings on skis no less.

Anyone know the history or where abouts of this nice flying bird?
