Story Synopsis

Airport 1975 is a disaster drama and sequel to the high grossing 1969 movie Airport, based on the novel by Arthur Hailey. The original was produced in Todd-AO® 70-mm with six-track mag stereo. This edition is Panavision® anamorphic scope with monaural sound as was another sequel Airport ’77. The movie is a high tension thriller with a large and famous cast of passengers and crew. This time a 747 jumbo jet is hit in midair by a private plane causing a gaping hole in the cockpit, killing the co-pilot and seriously injuring the pilot. The chief stewardess, played by Karen Black, must take control of the plane until a pilot, played by Charlton Heston, is daringly delivered by way of a rescue helicopter, to guide the plane to its landing.
