The Premise Of TailSpin Is Absolutely Insane When You Think About It

Raphael Orlove:

There was Baloo, the cartoon bear from The Jungle Book, flying a twin-engine float plane against air pirates. Why air pirates? Because in the world of TailSpin, the whole world was an air- and sea-based, and everyone flew. Of course there were gonna be scimitar-wielding air pirates.

I forgot about this show. Those were the days.
