Concorde | Airport '79 [4K]
About Airport '79
The Concorde ... Airport '79 is a 1979 American air disaster film (in the UK, it was released a year later as Airport '80: The Concorde) and the fourth and final installment of the Airport franchise. Although poorly reviewed by critics and earning poorly in North America, the film was a huge hit internationally, for a total gross of $65 million on a $14 million budget.
The film was directed by David Lowell Rich. The all-star cast includes George Kennedy, who appeared in all four films from the Airport series, Susan Blakely, Alain Delon and Robert Wagner in main roles. Mercedes McCambridge and Martha Raye have cameos.
As always, feedback/improvement tips are highly appreciated!

If you still need help, here is a good view of the "Concorde" font used in the movie:

And of its placement on the front left fuselage:

And it looks like that font is used on the tail as well:

My apoligies for the long wait. I just updated the livery. This was the font closest to the one used in the movie. Hope you like it. Thanks again for the feedback

Any news on updating the font to match the one used in the movie? This is one of the liveries I've been looking forward to the most. Thank you.

A great start, thank you so much. The font for the "Concorde" at the front end of the plane could use some adjustment, in the movie it was wider and italicized.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll have a look at it as soon as possible

Please do not forget the cameo of 1970's version of Snoop Dogg, Mr. Jimme (J.J) Walker as the saxophone player who tokes up in the Concorde washroom. Nor let us forget that George Kennedy's character, Joe Patroni (the only character and actor present in each Airport film) was a mechanic in every other movie. Suggesting that once supersonic jets hit the air, they let just about anybody be a pilot.
