San Francisco International (1970) TVM pilot

San Francisco International is a multiplotted drama set at the titular air transport center. Several storylines intersect at various junctures: A $3,000,000 cargo plane robbery, a teenaged boy whose parents are splitting up decides to rebel by commandeering an aircraft, and a violent confrontation between a nasty businessman and a an airheaded hippie. Presiding over these major and minor crises is airport manager Jim Conred (Pernell Roberts) who runs an airport, much to the chagrin of his boss, "his way." When San Francisco International became the TV series San Francisco International Airport, Lloyd Bridges stepped into the Van Johnson role.

Good question, I bet that if you found it it would be in a DVD remainder bin if you could find it at all, probably in a set with something else, I've found some rather obscure things in those bins. The only installment I've see was the pilot which was spoofed on Mystery Science Theater 3000.

No, Lloyd Bridges took over for Pernell Roberts when it became part of the FOUR-IN-ONE wheel

(along with MCCLOUD, NIGHT GALLERY, and THE PSYCHIATRIST).
