Last night Ian made an observation about pilots being the creme de la creme of humanity. My wife of over two decades would beg to differ but it brought back a memorable episode on The Bob Newhart Show.
In Tobin's Back in Town Howard Borden's (Bill Daily) girlfriend gets a visit from her ex-boyfriend played by a fabulous Fred Willard. He is everything Howard is not; suave dashing intelligent and charismatic, wearing imported Italian leather and given to drop Italian words like dumane (tomorrow) which send Helen's heart swooning.
Howard concocts a desperate scheme and races to Chicago O'Hare to intercept Tobin's inbound flight from Cleveland. When the cast meet him he is dressed complete with a WW-I Sopwith Camel scarf and goggles, far beyond the normal contemporary airline pilot accouterments. When asked why he explains that...oh...the airport might need him for some emergency. Seconds later a voice-of-God comes over the P.A.
"Attention please! Will Captain Howard Borden please report to the control tower. We have an emergency only YOU can solve!"
