I never knew he was brother of James Arness of Gunsmoke. ?? His role in Airport.. great. In Stalag 17.. even better.

What a bummer. The Airplane movies are what makes aviation great....

Joey, have you ever seen a grown man naked?

Default Blue Skies, Captain Oveur

Peter Graves dies in LA

He masterfully lampooned his straight-arrow image when he portrayed bumbling airline pilot Clarence Oveur in the 1980 disaster movie spoof "Airplane!"

RIP, Cap'n

I guess he had the fish.


Is there anyone here who doesn't quote Airplane several times a day- especially when little boys come up to see the cockpit?
