Sorry, not Richard Basehart (gee! That is a name from the past, too).
Our bloke here had some cowboy stuff and in later times showed his comic ability while being not wet.

watsea, with such good clues it's got to be LLoyd Bridges in Sea Hunt & Airplane.

DickO,
yes, it is Lloyd Bridges. You knew a few days ago and gave a clue as well, just holding out for a bit longer.
Someone else for us now?
Lloyd Bridges:
Lloyd Vernet Bridges Jr. (January 15, 1913 March 10, 1998) was an American film, stage and television actor who starred in a number of television series and appeared in more than 150 feature films. He was the father of four children, including the actors Beau Bridges and Jeff Bridges. He started his career as a contract performer for Columbia Pictures, appearing in films such as Sahara (1943), A Walk in the Sun(1945), Little Big Horn (1951) and High Noon (1952). On television, he starred in Sea Hunt 1958 to 1961. By the end of his career, he had re-invented himself and demonstrated a comedic talent in such parody filmsas Airplane! (1980), Hot Shots!(1991), and Jane Austen's Mafia!(1998). Among other honors, Bridges was a two-time Emmy Awardnominee. He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on February 1, 1994.
Did he star in a movie that he "narrated" with actor Tim Robbins ?

Hi Trevor, not that I am aware. I would have to do a search.

Doh, though it might be Morgan Freeman, he steers his own jet.
And not James Earl Jones: RIP

Good one Stewart! Over to you.
John Joseph Travolta is an American actor. He began acting in television before transitioning into a leading man in films. His accolades include a Primetime Emmy Award and a Golden Globe Award, in addition to nominations for two Academy Awards and a BAFTA Award.
Dick0 - it was those big bright eyes, the dancing and interest in aeroplanes that caught my attention. Apparently, John Travolta is the owner of a former QANTAS 707-138 and is donating it to a NSW organisation, if my info is correct.
This will be a tough one. By the looks and attire it has got to be about 200 years ago.
I'll wait for some clues.

Yes, because they were a shorter version of the 707 they called them the hot rod.
John's 707 is going to HARS.

He's not Stephenson as in Stephenson's rocket is he.
I think he used to hunt in the sea.

Who is this American actor?
Danny Devito?
Good try Trevor but not on target.
This guy can dance, also.
Is he staring Fred
He can fly also.
He probably has his own plane(s) too.
The captain sure does!
Did he star in a movie that he "narrated" with actor Tim Robbins ?
