Love the film "Airplane"? Pix from charity showing with Robert Hays/Ted Striker




Comedy classic 'Airplane!' – screening Friday at the Joslyn – was the product of first-time directors leading many first-time actors: http://www.omaha.com/go/movies/comedy-classic-airplane-screening-friday-at-the-joslyn-was-the/article_36fba099-2f9c-57d8-92d8-bd42c9071841.html

'Airplane!' star moved to Nebraska – ‘the armpit of world’ – during high school, graduated from Bellevue High: http://www.omaha.com/go/movies/airplane-star-moved-to-nebraska-the-armpit-of-world-during/article_b9b5262a-9b04-5642-9a52-9f8b4681cbb4.html

Marta and I go by the high school he graduated from almost everyday.



He was as hilarious introducing the movie as he is in the film.

From last night. He did autographs and posed for photos during the screening. We broke the lens.



He had plenty of memorabilia from his career available.



A tradition. After the show the volunteers get rewarded with dinner with the star. He sat with long time friends from high school.

I still laugh every time I watch it.

Robert Hayes is very handsome.

You are looking quite spiffy in your blue vest and tie as well Omaha Steve.

Looks as if you had a great time.

Simon: Unger, didn't you serve under Oveur in the Air Force?
Unger: Not directly. Technically, Dunn was under Oveur and I was under Dunn.
Dunn: Yep.
Simon: So, Dunn, you were under Oveur and over Unger.
Unger: Yep.
Clarence Oveur: That's right. Dunn was over Unger and I was over Dunn.
Unger: So, you see, both Dunn and I were under Oveur, even though I was under Dunn.
Clarence Oveur: Dunn was over Unger, and I was over Dunn.

How I envy you.
