Darn! George Kennedy and Ernest Borgnine were two of my favorites; both gone now.

A multi-talented guy, could play everything from a lovable bumpkin to a sadist to a schlub-next-door straight man. The ranks of likeable actors are thinning.

Yes indeed. Well-deserved Oscar win for it as well. When the Oscars were about rewarding acting achievement, not political affiliation and ideology.

Great actor, nice guy. He was grand marshal of the Juneau, Alaska 4th of July parade once or twice back in the late 80’s. The convertible corvette he was riding in stopped in front of us and a guy ran out, handed his one year old kid to George Kennedy and asked to take a picture. The look on his face as he held this baby kind of at arm’s length was pretty hilarious. He was a good sport and laughed with that booming voice of his. RIP.

He wasn't in Airplane, he was in the Arthur Hailey movie Airport, starring Burt Lancaster and Dean Martin. He played the head of the ground crew that had to move a jet that was stuck in the snow on a runway.

I agree. Dragline was quite a character.
He also played an interesting role as a Major in “The Dirty Dozen”.

He was riot in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot.

He always reminded me of the kind of cop I would not want stopping me for a ticket. Strictly by the book type persona.
To: Samwell Tarly
Would heartily recommend Lonely Are The Brave. Kennedy plays a rather sadistic sheriff’s deputy. Also stars Kirk Douglas, Walter Matthau and Carol O’Connor.

Yes, a great movie.
