Ok, I was trawling for new things on the net concerning the Eureka, and get the link to the Wiki page for the Nova. Now, I've seen this
page before, but either it's been edited or I simply didn't notice one particular mention.
It goes on about sitings in movies, Cannonball Run II, Deathrace 2000, and Condorman. But
Winners & Sinners? It's a Jackie Chan (and Sammo Hung) movie from '83 no less! Now if it's a Nova, Stirling or Eureka Sport is anyone's guess.
No I haven't seen the movie, unless it was some time ago. But check out the trailer for it, and at the 2:00 mark, you'll see it. And just as that scene cuts to the next one, you can see the line at the front of the canopy crack as it starts to open. So not an Eagle then.
Actually you know, the more I watch that trailer, the more I'm sure I've seen the movie, but probably around the mid to late 80's...
Hard to say from the trailer, but I'm guessing the Nova/Stirling/Eureka is only a 'bit part' in the movie.
Another movie to track down.
