Other mistake: The watch on Robert Foxworth's arm is a Hamilton 2-dial chronograph... but it is upside down. When Palm Beach is radioing the plane to find out its location, Foxworth looks at his watch. The Hamilton name and insignia are on the bottom when they should be on the top. (00:39:55)
Airport '77 (1977)
1 other mistake
Directed by: Jerry Jameson
Starring: Jack Lemmon, Joseph Cotten, Olivia de Havilland, Lee Grant, Brenda Vaccaro
Continuity mistake: In order to show the take-off of Stevens Corporation's 747, a scene from "Airport '75" is used - the plane's tail fin reads "CA" (for "Columbia Airlines") instead of showing the Stevens Corporate Logo.
Karen Wallace: Excuse me, I don't mean to intrude, but could you move your ass, dear?
Trivia: The navy radioman who first receives the emergency signal sent by Captain Gallagher (Jack Lemmon) is played by Chris Lemmon, Jack Lemmon's son.
