Airplane!: parents' guide

Slapstick only: fistfights, passengers lining up to slap and hit a hysterical woman, a jet plowing into a terminal, and passengers comically killing themselves to escape a boring story. No injury detail.

'Shit' (including a literal 'hits the fan' gag), 'goddamn,' 'ass,' 'crap,' 'bastard,' 'pisser' and 'hell.' No f-words.

Frequent innuendo and sight gags: a woman's bare breasts in a panic scene, a flight attendant inflating the blow-up autopilot suggestively, a woman in bed with a horse, and a pilot's suggestive questions to a boy.

Drug use is a running joke: an air traffic boss is shown downing amphetamines, smoking, drinking and sniffing glue, and a respectable-looking woman snorts cocaine. Ted's 'drinking problem' is a sight gag.

Peril is played for laughs, though a sick young girl's IV is accidentally knocked loose and the flight crew collapses. Little here is genuinely scary.
