The movie "Zero Hour" is going to be on TCM at 1330 CDT today. This is the movie that "Airplane" made fun of.

I set up "Zero Hour" to record on the DVR/TIVO early this morning, but thanks for the heads up anyway.

Just got through watching it, really didn't know that if you flew Spitfires you would have NO idea of how to fly a C-54. Send that guy back to school.
