Reading these quotes from the movie is just cracking me up...I got the movie, think I am going to watch it tonight.
"I haven't seen anything like this since the Anita Bryant concert." "Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked in the head with an iron boot? Of course you don't. No one does. That never happens. Sorry Ted, that's a dumb question. Skip that." "Elaine, you're a member of this crew. Can you face some unpleasant facts?" "No."

Here's a page with lots of quotes from the film This is terribly depressing to me. I have very vivid memories of going to see Airplaine II on opening day and sitting in the front row when I was 10. I'm getting old.
You know wha' they say: See a broad to get that bodiac lay'er down an' smack 'em yack 'em. Subtitle: EARLY TO BED, EARLY TO RISE, MAKES A MAN HEALTHY, WEALTHY AND WISE.

Airdude : Chief we got fog right down to the deck, every place east of the Rockies. There's no possible place to land, they'll have to come through to Chicago. McCrosky : Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit smoking. I want the best available man on this, a man who knows that plane inside and out and won't crack under pressure. Johnny : How 'bout Mr Rogers? Striker : Those are the flaps, this is the thrust, this must turn on the landing lights ( Plane starts to nose dive when that knob is turned ) Mayday, mayday, mayday. McCrosky : MAYDAY? What the hell does that mean? Johnny : Mayday? Why that's the Russian New Year. You know, we'll have a big parade, we'll serve hot hor'doevres . McCrosky : Alright Kolosomo, you work the relay, Roberts, check all air traffic within five miles, get that finger out of your ear, you don't know where that finger's been ( guy smells his finger ) Got a cigarette Nels? Your husband and the others are alive, but unconscious. Johnny : Just like Gerald Ford.
Airplane! was on AMC tonight. Twenty five years later, that movie is still hilarious! Randy: "We've had a bit of a problem in the cockpit" Striker: "The cockpit? What is it?" Randy: "It's a little room at the front of the plane where the pilots sit. But that's not important right now."
