Well there is VFR Visual Flight Rules which I did way back in the 1970s [Roll Eyes] then there is Instrument Flying, something I never moved onto, but in this movie they have a whole new approach to that subject [Big Grin]

Remember that brilliant number "Stayin Alive" by the Bee Gees in the film, well while we were on a first aid course for the bus company, they taught us all CPR. The thing was the get the timing right for the number of chest compressions. What they did was to play "Sayin Alive" while we practiced CPR on the dummy.

Try it... the timing to the music works.

I must say though that some of the lady drivers present, did add a bit of flair to there interpretation of doing it [Big Grin]

True: I did my CPR refresher a few months back.

Stayin' Alive it is!


"The Hospital!...What is it?!"

"-that's the big building where doctors work, but that's not important right now!"


Trivia: James Doohan once played Ted Stryker.

-in a radio production of Zero Hour!, which Airplane! parodies.
