Good actor and he's going to be missed by a lot of people who grew up watching his many films .

Airplane! is just one of those movies that you watch while channel surfing. I was filling out
a tare sheet on a 4x2 on ACK when I heard a really high voice say "I am checking in two of us for the flight to HYA", turned around and it was Julie Haggerty, she sounds the same. Other interesting people on ACK during the Summer were Mr. Rogers, my he always had a really neat story to tell, Tom Hanks who has a place on the Cape, and Tom Selleck. I am lucky to have met all of them.

It IS the most quoted movie in the aviation industry and, as was pointed out earlier, we've lost most of the cast of this classic movie.

Rest in Peace Mr. Nielson. We'll raise a glass and toast you, wishing you calm skies and a strong tailwind. Now get the clearance Clarence.

Thanks for the memories Leslie
