My memory was jogged about an Abbott & Costello movie I saw about forty odd years ago on the afternoon movie on THE local tv station. I think it was titled "Abbott and Costello Join the Air Corp" All I remember airplane wise was biplanes. As I remember it was pretty hilarious. Anyone know if it's available on dvd and if so where?

Keep 'Em Flying

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0033781/

Filmed at Chino Airport (Cal Aero Field) by the way.

Maybe only on VHS like the copy I got many moons ago?

One six right is an awesome movie, I bought it at Oshkosh, I meant the old Abbott and Costello movies.
