AIRPLANE! at Aerospace Bristol

  • Aerospace Bristol Hayes Way Patchway, Bristol, BS34 5BZ United Kingdom (map)
Surely as good as modern comedy gets? [...] Frankly, if you’re not laughing, get checked out for lockjaw
— Adam Smith (Empire)

DOORS: 19:15 | FILM STARTS 20:30

Airplane! underneath Concorde? Surely you can’t be serious…

Watch this hilarious Eighties-spoof underneath Concorde Alpha Foxtrot, in its magnificent home at Aerospace Bristol. This iconic plane is the last of its kind to be built and the last to fly; it ended its journey in Bristol and is now displayed in a custom-built hangar, and you will have the opportunity to look onboard prior to the film starting.

When the film starts, take your seats beneath the wings of this iconic plane, and laugh along to every line of this gloriously silly and achingly funny cult comedy classic!
