One of Our Aircraft Carriers Is Missing

One of Our Aircraft Carriers Is Missing is the second Zillion Dollar Adventures segment in the Richie Rich cartoon series, part of The Richie Rich/Scooby-Doo Show. It first aired 15 November 1980 on ABC.
== Summary ==
Richie and Gloria were in a rowboat, about to go scuba diving underwater searching for sunken treasure. Eventually, Cadbury swam to Richie, fully-clotbed, informing him he has to take a very important phone call from the Government, who reported that some aircraft carriers went missing, and asked Richie to help recover the aircraft and bring the robbers to justice.
== Trivia ==
* The title is a play on the 1942 British war film One of Our Aircraft Is Missing.
* This is the first of five episodes with Gloria wearing a bikini. The others were "Young Irona", "The Haunting of Castle Rich", "Giant Pearl" and "The Snowman Cometh".
* When Richie and Gloria were asking Professor Keenbean for useful inventions to help find the missing aircraft carriers, Dollar accidentally discovered a special pen that sprays an invisibility formula. Keenbean then makes his head invisible, but mentioned the effects only last one hour. In the segment "Villains, Inc.", Richie coats himself with Keenbean's invisible paint in an attempt to thwart an act of organized crime.
* This is one of five segments in the series that contain underwater scenes. Such scenes were also seen in "Mischief Movie" and "The Money Talks" in Season 2, "The Collector" in Season 3 (only to show a closeup of jet propellers attached to Richie's shoes), and "Whale of a Tale" in Season 4.
* When Richie, Gloria and Dollar were held in a glass chamber underwater in shark-infested waters, after Richie cut open the glass chamber using one of Keenbean's inventions, Richie was still talking despite the fact that water was filling the glass chamber. This is impossible to do in real life.
** Also, when Richie, Gloria and Dollar were escaping from the glass chamber, Gloria floated up to the surface, which proves her claim in the season 2 episode "Voodoo Island" that she couldn't swim. Yet, ironically, she swam early in this segment, and in the Treasure Chest segment "A Younger Irona".
