I post this segment up from the more modern (i.e. colour) Twilight Zone movie, as my wife has never seen it, and describing the gremlin on the wing segment gave her the chills!
You can see the first 10 minute part here, to see the setup and the gremlin tearing bits off the engine, but if you want to go straight to the part where the passenger goes out the window and meets the gremlin, watch away…….
This was an amusing ‘TV-film’ as I recall, although some segments were better than others. I’ve only recently found out, that the actor Vic Morrow was killed filming this, along with 2 child actors. They were filming a scene with a helicopter which flew too low to some pyrotechnics which went off, knocking loose the tail rotor. This then decapitated Vic and one of the children, before the helicopter crushed the other one. Horrible…..
Don’t have nightmares…….

I’ve seen both versions, the first with William Shatner and the second with John Lithgow. The gremlin was more realistic, obviously, in the second one.
God, I’d forgotten how I hated that bratty little girl! No one does panic/crazy like John Lithgow. Great clip.
The gremlin in the Shatner version looks more like the lion from the Wizard of Oz!
the gremlin in the first one Sucks, technology works in the second
I think I could see the gremlin better in the Shatner version though.
Seems to me I have been on this flight…it was around 1977 between Moline, IL and Cedar Rapids, IA. Just got food, dropped about 1200 feet in altitude and wore our lunch the rest of the way to Seattle. 
We were not happy campers, I can tell you! 
Oh, and did I mention we were flying with our 4 year old son? He got the worst of the airborne food.
Sounds like a relaxing flight Webduck
Similarities between twins and gremlins should not be discounted – as Chris will confirm Pat has started with the creepy wagging finger thing – and as far as I know he hasn’t seen this
Ha ha! V funny!
