June 1
& 2
For
thousands of air-show attendees, the movie will jump to life with Dusty’s
flying performance at select air shows across North
America . Dusty will show off his talents, communicate with the
crowd and be accompanied by an exclusive and uplifting Disney musical score.
‘Disney’s
Planes’ is a great underdog story, said director and aviation enthusiast Klay Hall.
“It has a lot of heart and a message we can all use: If we can believe in
ourselves, step out of our comfort zones and get past whatever fear is holding
us back, we’d be surprised with the results. And that’s exactly what happens to
Dusty in this movie. He’s a crop duster who’s never flown above 1,000 feet, but
he dreams of being the fastest air racer in the world. He has a lot of
obstacles to overcome and needs to dig pretty deep to find the courage to
become more than he was built for.”
David
White, Co-Producer of the Waterloo Air Show added: “The Waterloo Air Show is a
wonderful family event and we are absolutely thrilled to be a part of the
ultimate family experience with this very special appearance of Dusty from ‘Disney’s
Planes.’ We invite those of all ages to join us for this most unique event.”
The
owner and pilot of the aircraft tapped to play the role of Dusty in the air
show performances is Texas-based aerial applicator Rusty Lindeman, who
customized one of his own Air Tractor AT-301 airplanes to match Dusty’s paint
scheme and features. Manufactured in Olney , Texas , Air Tractor aircraft are used for agricultural
spraying, seeding and fertilizing, plus forestry protection, fire fighting and
more in the U.S.
Air
Tractor's founder, Leland Snow, designed, built and flew his own purpose-built
crop duster in 1953 and devoted his career to designing bigger and better
aircraft for aerial application.
ABOUT
THE MOVIE
From
above the world of “Cars” comes “Disney’s Planes,” an action-packed 3D animated
comedy adventure featuring Dusty (voice of Dane Cook), a plane with dreams of
competing as a high-flying air racer. But Dusty’s not exactly built for
racing—and he happens to be afraid of heights. So he turns to a seasoned naval
aviator who helps Dusty qualify to take on the defending champ of the race
circuit. Dusty’s courage is put to the ultimate test as he aims to reach
heights he never dreamed possible, giving a spellbound world the inspiration to
soar. Featuring a talented roster of voice talent, including Stacy Keach, Brad
Garrett, Teri Hatcher, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and more, “Disney’s Planes” takes
off in theatres on Aug. 9, 2013. For more information, check out Disney.com/Planes, like us on Facebook: facebook.com/DisneyPlanes or facebook.com/WaltDisneyStudiosCanada and follow us on Twitter: twitter.com/DisneyPictures.
