Airport '77 anyone?
I need a snapper conversion (or a custom) of the Airport '77 Goodtimes DVD to replace a damaged case I just received. Can anyone help me out? If you want credits at DCA, I've already posted a request there.

I also own the Airport '77 Goodtimes DVD & the Laserdisc of the film. I've been considering doing a custom cover using the LD art as a basis. Of course since so many people on this forum seem to have such a low opinion of my work you may wish to wait for someone else to attempt it. Based on your request, I think I'll work on it. I'll post it to The DVD Greek Site and you can decide on your own.

That would be great. I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with. And for the record, I do not have a low opinion of your work. Several of your covers are currently featured in my collection as a matter of fact.

Joliom the cover is ready for download at the DVD Greek.com site. Use the link from the earlier post. You need to register to download if you are not already. I could not match it as closely to the Airport & Airport 1975 covers because I had no access to portait images of the stars from the film. This resource was available to me for the Airport & Airport 1975 covers.

Got it, thanks. Now I might need to go ahead and download your other Airport covers so I can make a matching set. I've been collecting these for my father, who likes all the '70s disaster pics. Any plans for Airport '79? I don't know if I'm going to pick that one up yet or not being that it was pretty lame, but I might just to be a completist.

If you could wait a short time, I plan to redo the backs of the two earlier covers. I am not happy with that part of those two covers. No, I don't own the Concorde fourth part. I hated it when I saw it in the theatre.

I know the Airport 77 is OOP and worth a few bucks
I to have the Goodtimes DVD 1H54M long 'mono', but my disc insert and cover art is in a keepcase. My insert is only printed on one side, but this is no boot! I also have Airport 75 (Charleton Heston) and a Wide Screen of Airport (1970) still 'wrapped', the only one I am missing and it's because it hasn't come out is the one with the mach 2 (2 times the speed of sound, 1500+ M.P.H. ) Concorde, the 'plane' is now retired from service.
Keepcase is from 2001 with 18 chapters and a LBX not anamorphic, with it going OOP, there will never be a 'anamorphic' IMHO.
P.S. Arthur Haileys book inspired this movie and my favorite charactor is played by George Kennedy.
