Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Test Pilot is a 1938 film directed by Victor Fleming, starring Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy, Myrna Loy, and Lionel Barrymore.Gable is Jim Lane, the eponymous test pilot, and Tracy is Gunner, Jim's mechanic and best friend. Jim is out trying to set a speed record in an experimental plane when an oil pump failure forces him to make an unscheduled landing in a farm in Kansas, which happens to be the residence of Ann Barton (Loy). They quickly fall in love and get married, but the incredibly dangerous life of a test pilot brings stress to both Jim's marriage and Jim's friendship with Gunner. Barrymore plays Drake, Jim's boss.
