    Storyline

    • Trivia
      At one point, William Shatner looks into a periscope and sees the USS Enterprise from "Star Trek (1966)." This is the only time the original television version of the Enterprise appeared on the big screen. For the theatrical movies, it had been heavily modified.
    • Goofs
      When Ted Stryker is attempting to land the shuttle, he makes reference to the events of Airplane! (1980) and talks about landing a Boeing 767 in Chicago. In "Airplane!" he was landing a Boeing 707. The Boeing 767 was not in service until 1982.
    • Quotes

      Witness: Striker was the squadron leader. He brought us in real low. But he couldn't handle it.

      Prosecutor: Buddy couldn't handle it? Was Buddy one of your crew?

      Witness: Right. Buddy was the bombardier. But it was Striker who couldn't handle it, and he went to pieces.

      Prosecutor: *Andy* went to pieces?

      Witness: No. Andy was the navigator. He was all right. Buddy went to pieces. It was awful how he came unglued.

      Prosecutor: *Howie* came unglued?

      Witness: Oh, no. Howie was a rock, the best tailgunner in the outfit. Buddy came unglued.

      Prosecutor: And he bailed out?

      Witness: No. Andy hung tough. Buddy bailed out. How he survived, it was a miracle.

      Prosecutor: Then Howie survived?

      Witness: No, 'fraid not. We lost Howie the next day.

    • Crazy credits
      After the ending credits roll off the screen, a commercial comes up that says "Coming from Paramount Pictures: Airplane III". Then William Shatner, as Buck Murdock, comes on and says "That's exactly what they'll be expecting us to do!"
    • Alternate versions
      Network TV version includes extra footage, including a scene where budget passengers are tossed out of a moving airplane on tethers. Another showing the President (Reagan impersonator) plus, a few additional gags, here and there.

    More of the Same, but in the Future
    It is the future. People are getting ready for there first transport to the Moon to live in Moon colonies, and Ted Striker knows something bad is going to happen. The Roc 4000 computer goes nuts and kills the crew of the spaceship and sets the ship towards the sun. If Striker can't take back the ship and change it's course they will all fry. Sequel to Airplane! is mainly a parody on 2001, with all the original Airplane! jokes thrown back in. Most of the cast has returned including Lloyd Bridges, Peter Graves, and even the jive talking dude. William Shatner and Sunny Bono are very good as a few new characters. Is it funny? Yes, but not as funny as the first. People who enjoyed the first one should enjoy this one. Fairly average comedy. **out of **** Note: After the end credits they say Airplane 3 coming soon. It never came.
