I suspect that's not the kid's dad. More likely a servant, serf or other form of underling.

Unfortunately you are probably correct...

Unfortunately you are probably correct...

Yeah...but at least it resurrects your Dad's greatness.

C'mon guys, lighten up - it IS his dad.

In their photoshopped machine?

Not Photoshop but good, old, traditional blue screen stunt work with a mock-up aircraft (the movie pre-dated Photoshop by almost a quarter of a century...which probably makes most of us feel REALLY old!).
