I was listening to Benny Goodman's rendering of "Moonglow" recently
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cq8ZGnfUN4
and was reminded of the very romantic scene of Katherine Hepburn and Howard Hughes flying over the lights of LA in the film "Aviator" in a Sikorsky S-38

and that in turn led me to this nice image of an S-42 flying over the San Francisco Bay Bridge during construction.
