That joke was not originally in the script. ZAZ wanted the plane to be a prop plane but the studio demanded that it be a modern jet airliner. So they used the prop plane sound over shots of a jet. Voila, a gag and a subtle “screw you” to the studio.

Oh say can you see  
By the dawn’s early light  
What so proudly we hail  
In the twilight’s last gleaming?  
Whose bright stripes and broad stars  
In the perilous night  
For the ramparts we watched  
uh, da-da-da-da-da-daaaa.  
And the rocket’s red glare  
Lots of bombs in the air  
Gave proof to the night  
That we still had our flag.  
Oh say does that flag banner wave  
Over a-a-all that’s free  
And the home of the land  
And the land of the - FREE!

Shep, sit! Sit!

Shep, no!

Shep, come!

He gets so excited when new people are here. Are you a pilot yourself?

No, I’m …

[_Shep eyeballs the poor visitor with a priceless look of canine imbecility, and with a terrific leap launches himself bodily at him, knocks him to the ground, and proceeds to tear at his clothing as Kramer comes downstairs, oblivious to all, muttering about the FAA and cheats and liars in the airline business._]

A most memorable scene if one is personally in the middle of doggie-training a large puppy right about that time! 😃
