It's a movie called Zero Hour!

Zero Hour! (1957) In 1950s Canada, during a commercial flight, the pilots and some passengers suffer food poisoning, thus forcing ex-WW2 fighter pilot, Ted Stryker, to try to land the airliner in heavy fog.

I found this clip on YouTube, and I really want to watch the whole film now.

The guy that played Ted Stryker in Zero Hour was in The Best Years of Our Lives! That's great!

All I know about it is it's use in Airplane!. Part of me has been interested to check it out, but everytime I'm like "why not just watch Airplane! again?"

For me, because it is only 81 minutes long and because I know Airplane SO well, that I think I would enjoy watching Zero Hour! because I would be filling in the jokes myself and seeing the inspiration would entertain me.
