There’s an “airline geek” named Andy Smith who points out that (a) there’s a dusky twilight shot of the mythical 747 that Orlando Bloom’s character takes from Portland to Louisville in the trailer for Elizabethtown, and says (b) that this aircraft “is none other than Columbia Airlines flight 409 (obviously not a real airline) from the movie Airport ’75. You know…the one with crossed-eyed stewardess Karen Black trying to fly a plane with a large hole ripped into it from an air-to-air collision?” This has to be checked out. Bloom and Dunst flirting all alone in first-class, and Karen Black in the pilot’s seat? Awesome if true. Anyone?
