Plane in Great Movie Ride

[TwitterMouse]

When I was on The Great Movie Ride and we passed the Casablanca scene the cast member told me that the other half of the plane from the Casablanca scene was over at Jungle Cruise. I just thought that was kinda cool.

It does sound cool but I don't know if it is true or not. According to Lou's book (p.162) the plane was cut in half with the front half going to The Great Movie Ride and the back half going to the Backlot Tour. Either way it was pretty cool that they cut the plane in half!

i have read that that IS NOT TRUE
the real plane would be toooooo big to fit in there so they made a smaller mock up

Also, why would that plane go in Disney World? You'd think that out of all places on the planet, why WDW?

I don't think Twitter means the actual plane used for the movie Cassablanca (again according to Lou's book that was just a prop) but Twitter means the plane that they use for the Casablanca scene in the Great Movie Ride. It's says that Disney bought a real Lockheed 12A plane and chopped it in half. :mickey:

When we were on the Jungle Cruise, our skipper told us that the other half of the plane was the one in the Great Movie Ride. Normally I would be suspicious of anything a skipper told us because they are so whacky, but this particular skipper was terrible and not funny at all...so I kinda believed her.

I have heard that that is true

Ive heard a few times that the plane is the one from the movie. Ive also heard a few times that it is not the one from the movie. So who knows.
