Hollywood hero news:
Leslie Nielson, the 82 year old white haired comedy actor,
who played the accident prone pilot in Airplane 1 and 2,
is the top tip to rescue his pilot-acting credibility by
starring in a non-comedy big screen version of the remarkable

Critics
suggest that the movie could be Nielson's last chance to
end his career on a positive piloting note.
A
serving pilot told us:
"Nielson
is a joke in piloting circles to this very day, his role
as Dr Rumack in Airplane set back piloting by years. There
was a time in the 80's when every pilot had to run the
gamut of ridicule from passengers when they walked through
the airport, some pilots changed into tracksuits and hid
their hats to avoid trouble. To this day if anyone calls
me Shirley there is no telling what I will do."
Other
top tip candidates to play the role of hero Sully include:
Bruce
Willis
Dennis
Haysbert
George
W Bush
and
Kate Winslett
Nobody
died, all of them Americans.
