Everyone knows that Oshkosh becomes the busiest airport in the world the week of EAA AirVenture Oshkosh (July 29-August 4), and that airplanes take off all the time ... however, 2013 will be a first for some very special planes.
The summer release of "Disney's Planes," the animated comedy adventure from above the world of the popular 2006 film "Cars," has the entire aviation community buzzing! Those attending AirVenture this year will have the opportunity to experience a Special Preview Screening at the Fly-In Theater on Friday night, August 2, one week before the movie opens in theaters nationwide. "Disney's Planes" will touch all who see it and help them understand the thrill and excitement that flying offers.
Director and aviation enthusiast Klay Hall says, "'Disney's Planes' is a great underdog story. 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 that's 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 to be. We're so happy to share the film with the passionate aviation community at AirVenture.""Disney's Planes" features a talented roster of voice talent, including Dane Cook, Brad Garrett, Teri Hatcher, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Stacy Keach and more. "Disney's Planes" takes off in theaters on Aug. 9, 2013. For more information, check outDisney.com/Planes, facebook.com/DisneyPlanes and twitter.com/DisneyPictures.

ABOUT "DISNEY'S PLANES"
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.
