Hitchcock? I thought that was Twilight Zone with John Lithgow's character. That is pretty friggin funny though!
It was from the Twilight Zone, although the Lithgow version in the TZ movie was a remake from the original television series, with William Shatner as the man who saw the monster on the wing.Quote:

Oooooh. It's not my fault that I'm too young to know better :-P

With Shatner, what a classic! (my bad with the credit ot Hitchcock though.) I never saw the version with Lithgow though. Worth seeing? What was the movie like?
Of interesting note, read the "trivia" portion fron this link. Mentions Western Airlines.

Phil D. to the rescue!!!!!
(not to take it off-topic, but yes, Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983) was a pretty good one....it's a bunch of different shorts - you should check it out)
I saw that trivia bit, sounded like a great plan, too bad it didn't work out.Quote:

The movie is probably best remembered for what happened during filming of the final segment - actor Vic Morrow played a racist trapped in various settting - Nazi Germany, Viet Nam, etc. He and two child actors were killed during the filming of the Viet Nam portion, when an explosion caused a helicopter accident.
Hmm, a JetBlue 757? anyone get any pics of that? :D
Hint: It's painted blue and white, but doesn't have a funky tail.

By the way, that wasn't a FlightAware mistake. jetBlue has resorted to renting planes to clear out the glut of passengers stuck at JFK for the past two days.
Seriously? Awesome!!
Who did they rent it from?
BTW,
By the way, I think I know OMGWTF, but BBQ? What is the BBQ?
Back on topic..... think David Neeleman was a slight resemblance to the gremlin out on the wing?!
