Agree that “Airplane” is one of the funniest movies ever.
One of the Zucker Bros who did that also did An American Carol, a conservative leaning film inspired by A Christmas Carol. Pretty good, though critics of course hated it for daring to poke fun at the Left.
One bit had inept terrorists; another showed what would have happened if the Civil War hadn’t been fought (blacks still slaves—Gary Coleman was seen polishing “Michael Malone’s” car. One deleted bit had him tossing the sponge to another slave: “Yo, Barack! Catch!” ) “1968” was a musical number about professors stuck in the glory days of campus protestors.
