Greetings from the Count! As you all know, I'm putting the finishing touches on my Muppet Listings Version 10, and I need some help concerning Follow That Bird!

1 What's the name of the actor who portrayed Mr. Postman,the man who delivered Snuffy's postcard?
2 Were there any airplane passengers that kind of asked Big Bird to be quiet? How many were there? And what are the names of the people who portrayed those characters? And do you think "Airplane Passenger" would be an acceptable entry for them?
3 Likewise, do you think there should be an entry for the "Toadstool Parade"? And should there be any of the actor/people's names attached to said entry?
4 The credits list the group of bird characters from the beginning as "The Board of Birds" and yet they're refered to as "The Feathered Friends" throughout the movie. So which should be the title used for this entry in my listings?
Please reply ASAP cause I'd rully like to wrap up my ML 10 by tomorrow in time to celebrate Sesame's 35th anniversary. Thanks for your help and have a great night.

Thanks Kyle, I'll streamline these questions so that it may be easier for others to come in and respond.

1 If you could, what's the name of the actor who played the character known as "Mr. Postman"?
This character delivered Snuffy's postcard to Big Bird.
2 There are two airline passengers seated in front of Big Bird in the plane to Oceanview, Illinois.
a. What are the names of the actors/actresses that played these roles?
b. How would you include them in a Muppets Listing: as "Airline Passengers #1 and #2", separated into two entries?
3 The group of birds that show up at the beginning of the movie are refered throughout the movie as "The Feathered Friends", but the credits list them as "The Board of Birds".
How should these characters be included in my listings? As "The Board of Birds" or "The Feathered Friends"?
4 The Toadstool Parade.
a. Should there be an entry for these characters as seen near the middle of the movie?
b. If so, should there be actors' names accompanying the entry or entries?
c. How many parade musicians were there, and should they be listed individually or as a group entry?
d. Or should they not be listed at all?
5 The Truck Driver.
a. Should this character be listed as is, with only the Henson production designation distinguishing him from the Truck Driver from The Great Muppet Caper?
b. Or should this entry be slightly modified to read as "The Turkey Farm Truck Driver" or "The Turkey Truck Driver"?
6 What are the names of the two characters that appear near the end of the movie when Big Bird returns?
I believe one is voiced by Catherine Mullin, and the other is voiced by Kevin Clash.
Please reply ASAP cause I'd rully like to finish off ML 10 before tomorrow. Thanks for your help and have a good night.
