> [@Prof.Pepperwinkle](#): > > **Characters who are pilots** > > 1. Howard Borden - The Bob Newhart Show I believe his character was that of a navigator – as opposed to a pilot – for an unnamed airline. And while most navigators did probably know enough about flying that they could have taken over the aircraft in an emergency, I don’t believe that (at that time) they had full cockpit qualifications. So I’ll replace him as follows: **Characters who are pilots** 1. “Howlin’ Mad” Murdoch - The A- Team 2. Brian Hackett - Wings 3. Captain Dave - LA to Vegas 4. Dick Dastardly - Dastardly and Muttley in Their Flying Machines 5. Schuyler King - Sky King 6. Colonel Joe Gallagher – Twelve O’Clock High _ **-“BB”-** _ ---
