In The Twilight Zone episode The Last Flight, (which originally aired February 5, 1960,) British RFC Flt. Lt. Decker was lost over France on March 5, 1917, and he seemed to have returned on this date, 42 years later.
The episode was filmed at Norton AFB, San Bernardino, California–playing the roll of Lafayette Air Base, Reims, France. There was a Reims Air Base in France in 1959 (the year the episode was set), now known as Aerodrome de Reims-Champagne. Norton AFB was decommissioned and closed in 1994. The site is now San Bernardino International Airport.
