Harrison Ford looked good in his first public appearance following the plane crash as he took the stage at the San Diego Comic-Con for the "Star Wars 7" panel.

The 72-year-old gave fans his trademark smile as his appearance was greeted with a loud cheer and applause. Harrison Ford broke his pelvis and ankle in the March plane crash when his vintage WWII jet smashed into a golf course.

"I'm fine. I walked here so how bad can it be?" he said.

Calista Flockhart's husband also talked about going back on set for "Star Wars 7" after so many years.

"It should have felt ridiculous," Harrison Ford said. "It was 30 plus years ago, and I sort of grew up. Yet here I was. I will tell you that it felt great."

The panel for "Star Wars 7: The Force Awakens" also included director Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, director JJ Abrams, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega and writer Lawrence Kasdan.

Fans at Comic-Con were also treated to a short clip lasting three minutes of the behind-the-scenes in shooting "Star Wars."

"If there are 2 things Harrison Ford knows how to do ... it's landing planes, and making entrances -- he did one of those to enormous applause at Comic-Con," TMZ reported. "Harrison got back together with his 'Star Wars' cohorts Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill Friday evening in San Diego, and it was just like old times ... except they're all much older."

"This was 72-year-old Harrison's first public appearance since the crash landing in March ... and he looks to be in great shape," it added.

Last month, "Star Wars 7" actor Harrison Ford was snapped with a long scar on his head as a result of the plane crash.

"Just three months after sustaining serious injuries including a broken pelvis and broken ankle, the 72-year-old is fully mobile, no longer has a brace and is walking without any aids," said Daily Mail.

"It's the first time the Star Wars star has been seen out and about running errands and clearly showing how well his recovery is going," it added.
