I like movies like that too.  The Zucker/Abrahams/Zucker movies are some of my favorites.  And I've heard "Flying High" is the Australian title; in the US and other parts of the world, it's called "Airplane!".  I think "Flying High" is a good name for the movie, but I'm not sure why the changed it for Australia.
