The Colt Aircrewman was an ultra-lightweight version of the Detective Special constructed of aluminum alloy, and made from 1951-1957 for use by US Air Force aircrews.  It was apparently plagued with problems, especially cylinder cracking.  Nevertheless, in good condition they seem to demand almost $3000 these days.
