#258: The Case of the
Vanishing Victim
Original Airdate: 01/23/66
From The Perry Mason TV Show Book
Dr. Stacey Fielding is supposed to be flying his own plane to Salt Lake City on business. Monkey business is suspected when the plane crashes and the body is found with Veronal poisoning. Miriam Fielding is arrested since the last thing Stacey drank was whiskey from a flask she had given him.
On further investigation, Miriam is cleared and even Perry is surprised to find out that the man who really died in the crash was Al, the airplane mechanic. He had switched places with Fielding at the last minute. So where is Dr. Fielding?

Location: About half way through the episode Perry and Paul go to the Burbank Airport and you can see the exterior of the terminal and parking lot. I confirmed this with Les Copeland, president, of the Burbank Aviation Museum. Burbank Airport is now called Bob Hope Airport and is also featured in episodes #39, 165 and #99.

+Jeanne Cooper makes her final of 5 appearances here on Perry playing Miriam Fielding. Since 1973 Ms. Cooper has been essaying the role of matriarch Katherine Chancellor on the daytime drama "The Young And The Restless". However, she is probably most famous for being the mother of Corbin Bernsen.
