Airplane II: The Sequel (titled Flying High II: The Sequel in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Japan, and the Philippines) is a 1982 sequel to the 1980 American comedy film Airplane!. First released on December 10, 1982, the film was written and directed by Ken Finkleman and stars Robert Hays, Julie Hagerty, Lloyd Bridges, Chad Everett, William Shatner, Rip Torn, and Sonny Bono.
In the near future, the Moon has been colonized and supports a station on its surface. A lunar shuttle known as Mayflower One is being rushed to launch from Houston. The head of the ground crew, The Sarge (Chuck Connors), does not like what is occurring, but he defers to the airline's management.
On the flight crew are Captain Clarence Oveur (Peter Graves), First Officer Dunn (James A. Watson, Jr.) and Navigator Dave Unger (Kent McCord). Also on board is computer officer Elaine Dickinson (Julie Hagerty). Elaine has long since left Ted Striker (Robert Hays) and is now engaged to one of the flight crew, Simon Kurtz (Chad Everett). Striker has in the meantime been committed to an insane asylum, as he was declared mentally incompetent in a lawsuit following a test flight that Ted piloted and in which the lunar shuttle crashed. Striker believes that the lawsuit was used to silence him, because he knew there were problems with the lunar shuttle that made it unsafe, and he is once more haunted by his actions in "The War", specifically the events that took place over "Macho Grande", where he lost his entire squadron. When Striker reads of the upcoming lunar shuttle launch, he escapes the asylum and buys a ticket for the flight.
During the flight, Mayflower One suffers a short circuit, causing the artificially intelligent computer ROC to go insane and send the ship toward the Sun. Unger and Dunn try to deactivate the computer but are blown out of an airlock. Oveur tries to stop ROC, but the computer gasses him. Kurtz abandons Elaine and leaves in the only escape pod. Once again, Striker is called upon to save the day, but first he has to figure out how to make the computer relinquish control. Steve McCroskey (Lloyd Bridges), the air traffic controller, reveals that a passenger named Joe Seluchi (Sonny Bono) had boarded Mayflower One with a bomb in a briefcase, intending to commit suicide so that his wife can collect on insurance money. Striker manages to wrestle the bomb from Seluchi and uses it to blow up ROC and set course for the Moon as originally intended.
Using the bomb to destroy the computer causes collateral damage to the shuttle, meaning the flight is not out of danger yet. On the way to the Moon, control of the flight is shifted to a lunar base, commanded by Commander Buck Murdock (William Shatner). He has a high level of contempt for Striker because of Macho Grande, but agrees to help anyway. They manage to land the craft on the Moon. Ted and Elaine fall back in love and are married at the end. After the wedding, Seluchi looks into the cockpit and asks for his briefcase back.
A post-credit scene shows a screen that says "From Paramount Pictures: "Airplane III"". Murdock is then seen saying "That's exactly what they'll be expecting us to do!"
"Airplanes" is a song by American rapper B.o.B featuring Hayley Williams, lead singer of the rock band Paramore. The song was released as the second official and third overall single from his debut studio album, B.o.B Presents: The Adventures of Bobby Ray. The track was produced by Alex da Kid and DJ Frank E, both of whom also co-wrote the song with B.o.B himself and Kinetics & One Love.[2][3] The song was sent to urban radio on April 27, 2010.[4]
"Airplanes" peaked at number one on the charts in the United Kingdom and New Zealand, as well as the top three in Australia, Canada, Ireland and the United States. "Airplanes, Part II", the sequel to the song, features rapper Eminem as well as Williams. This collaboration led to a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Collaboration With Vocals.[5]
"Airplanes" was composed by B.o.B, Alex "da Kid" Grant, DJ Justin "Frank E" Franks, Jeremy "Kinetics" Dussolliet, and Tim "One Love" Sommers. B.o.B wrote his rap verses, Kinetics & One Love wrote the chorus sung by Paramore lead singer Hayley Williams, and DJ Frank E & Alex da Kid co-produced the music. The original version had verses written by Lupe Fiasco. Later, the song was given to B.o.B by his label.[6] Williams' appearance in the song was explained by herself and B.o.B in different interviews to MTV. Williams said Paramore was on tour when she was given the song and she "liked the part too much" and accepted to appear on it.[7] B.o.B said he has "always been a Hayley fan" and he did not expect a collaboration between them too soon. The duo did not get in the studio together to record the song, they were not together to shoot the music video, and had never even met each other in person, according to Williams.[8][9][10] The only time that B.o.B and Williams were able to meet was when they performed "Airplanes" live for the first time together during the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards.[11] The second time the song was performed together live was during Vanderbilt University's Fall 2010 "Commodore Quake" concert in Nashville, TN. During B.o.B.'s performance, Williams came out as a special guest to perform the song.[12]
"Airplanes" sold 138,000 digital downloads in its first week and debuted at number five on the Billboard Hot Digital Songs chart. The sales made the song debut at number twelve on Billboard Hot 100, making it B.o.B's highest debut on the chart and Williams' first entry as a solo act.[15] The song continued to rise in the chart and peaked at number two on its sixth week, losing the top position to Usher's "OMG".[16] "Airplanes" entered in numerous Billboard charts, including the Pop Songs and Rap Songs charts, where the song peaked at number two.[17][18] "Airplanes" had sold over 4 million digital downloads by December 2010, according to Nielsen Soundscan, becoming a bigger success in the United States than his debut single, "Nothin' On You".[19]
Elsewhere, "Airplanes" was well received. The song debuted at number sixty two on the Canadian chart and reached its current peak position of number two on its ninth week on the chart. In the Australian chart the song debuted at number eighteen and peaked at number two within three weeks on the chart and has been in that position for six non-consecutive weeks. It was in New Zealand where the song got its first number one position. After three weeks of its debut (at number three), the song reached number one and stayed in that position for five consecutive weeks. "Airplanes" later received a Platinum certification in New Zealand, due to its successful chart performance.[20]
In Europe, the song has been released in a number countries, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden. "Airplanes" first appearance in a European chart was in Norway and Ireland and the song has reached the Top ten in both countries. In the United Kingdom, however, the song was even more successful. It debuted at number twenty-three on the UK Singles Chart and within five weeks on the chart, the song managed to reach the number two spot, again losing the top to Katy Perry's "California Gurls". In the same week, "Airplanes" was number one on the UK R&B Chart. The following week, "Airplanes" went to number one from downloads alone of 75,892, becoming B.o.B's second number one hit in Britain following his debut single "Nothin' On You", which had reached the British chart summit almost two months earlier. "Airplanes" has also peaked at number two in the European Hot 100 chart.[21]
The song was No. 6 on Billboard's Year End Chart. The song is the twenty-first most downloaded single in British chart history.
As of January 2013, the official music video on YouTube has over 180 million views.
