Unidentified 2-Seater trainer airplane

I can't find yet what is this airplane, shape beeing sort of mix with DHC-1 Chipmunk, Fairchild PT-19 and Piper like landing gear. Any idea guys?.Sixcyl 07:00, 6 December 2014 (MST)

RenoRacer suggested an UTVA Aero 3 but the landing gear and horizontal tail don't fit. LVCDC 13:06, 10 June 2015 (MDT)

Brantly 305

Under Brantly B-2 category for the moment, but I think it would worth its own category page when we will find a second one in the filmography.Sixcyl 07:03, 6 December 2014 (MST)

The screenshot is not the most explicit but when we watch the movie, registration is well visible. By the way, the landing zone is on top of the Pan Am Building, the then-headquarters of Pan American World Airways, now the MetLife Building, 200 Park Avenue, New York City (which is too seen in Catch Me If You Can (but without helicopter; only from the street and inside)).
