Remove ads
I Fly Anything is an American old-time radio adventure drama. It was broadcast on ABC from November 29, 1950, until July 19, 1951.[1]
Dockery Crane was a freelance pilot who used his Douglas DC-4 plane for any job that was legal and would earn money. He was assisted by co-pilot Buzz and secretary June.[2]
I Fly Anything was unusual in that it featured two men who were not known primarily as actors. Dick Haymes, who starred as Crane, was best known for his singing;[1] the program was his debut as far as a straight dramatic role was concerned.[3]
George Fenneman, who played Buzz, was usually heard as an announcer on radio and television.[1] He was not in the show's original cast but was first heard in the January 23, 1951, episode,[4] the same one in which Georgia Ellis joined the cast as Crane's secretary.[5]
Jay Arlen and Lou Cook were the announcers, while Frank Cooper and Sy Fisher were producers.[2] Dwight Hauser[1] and Clark Andrews directed the program.[6] Writers were Arnold Perl, Abe Ginniss, and Les Crutchfield.[1]
