Airplane! VHS 1980 - CGC Home Video 9.0 and Seal A, Gatefold Box, Vertical Overlap Seal, "Recorded on Scotch" Blue Oval Sticker, "29.95" Suggested Retail Manufacturer Sticker, Rear White Paramount Home Video Watermarks, Paramount Home Video. Airplane! is a classic 1980 comedy film directed by Jim Abrahams, David Zucker, and Jerry Zucker. The story revolves around Ted Striker, a traumatized former pilot, who must overcome his fear of flying to save a flight full of passengers after the crew falls ill due to food poisoning. As Striker attempts to navigate the chaos in the cockpit, the film unfolds with a hilarious barrage of absurd and slapstick humor, spoofing the disaster film genre. Packed with memorable one-liners, visual gags, and a relentless pace, "Airplane!" is celebrated for its irreverent humor and remains a beloved and influential comedy.

Early Paramount gatefold releases are extremely rare and sought after by collectors or early VHS releases. This factory sealed VHS copy of Airplane! comes in a 1980 Paramount gatefold slipcase with early production rear Paramount Home Video watermarks and "Recorded on Scotch" blue oval sticker on the front. It has received a grade of 9.0 by CGC Home Video, with a Seal grade of A.
