Bit of fun on an otherwise dreary week to come of no flying

We all know the classic ones from top gun, but whats your favorite line from any aviation film?

I have to say, without a doubt mine is from Flight of the intruder


Grafton: Well, this is the end of Devil Five- O - Five. Say goodbye, a@@hole!

Cole: Goodbye A@@hole!

Grafton: Eject, Eject, Eject!:}


My Next would have to be Michael cain sitting in a spitfire waiting to depart in Battle of Britain, but i will leave that one for someone else.

Not really a "line" but I like the one where Howard Hughes (DiCaprio) is running his hand along some woman's "part" and in the next scene he is running it along an airframe making sure the rivets are flush.

Not from a film but from a book - The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.

The scene is that Zaphod enters a field with derelict spacecraft. But one of those still seems intact. He enters and hears a voice:

"Transtellar Cruise Lines would like to apologize to passengers for the continuing delay to this flight. We are currently awaiting the loading of our complement of small lemon-soaked paper napkins for your comfort, refreshment and hygiene during the journey. Meanwhile we thank you for your patience. The cabin crew will shortly be serving coffee and biscuits again."

[...]

...he suddenly caught sight of a giant departure board still hanging, but by only one support, from the ceiling above him. It was covered with grime, but some of the figures were still discernible. [...] 'Nine hundred years...' he breathed to himself. That's how late this ship was.

[...]

In every seat sat a passenger, strapped into his or her seat. The passengers' hair was long and unkempt, their fingernails were long, the men wore beards. All of them were quite clearly alive - but sleeping.

[...]

'You're the autopilot?' said Zaphod
'Yes,' said the voice from the flight console.
'You're in charge of this ship?'
'Yes,' said the voice again, 'there has been a delay. Passengers are to be kept temporarily in suspended animation, for their comfort and convenience. Coffee and biscuits are served every year, after which passengers are returned to suspended animation for their continued comfort and convenience. Departure will take place when the flight stores are complete. We apologize for the delay.'

[...]

'Delay?' he cried. 'Have you seen the world outside this ship? It's a wasteland, a desert. Civilization's been and gone, man. There are no lemon-soaked paper napkins on the way from anywhere!'
'The statistical likelihood, ' continued the autopilot primly, 'is that other civilizations will arise. There will one day be lemon-soaked paper napkins. Till then there will be a short delay. Please return to your seat.'

Always makes me smile when a delay to a flight is announced.

Harrison Ford and Ann Heche crash land on a Tahitian Island after their Beaver is struck by lightning. Whilst out looking for water they argue and she accuses him of ogling. He says she isnt his type anyway. She asks why? His reply is brilliant. "your stubborn, self opinionated, stuck up..........and your arse is too narrow and your tits are too small":D She then asks him "do you want to know why your not my type?" He replies "NOPE!". The film is six days seven nights and a good bit of light entertainment. There are many witty exchanges throughout.

From the film 'Battle of Britain ' when the new Spitfire pilot forgets to put his undercarriage down, overshoots and then bounces on landing twice. When he walks in to the pilot hut the pilots sitting outside say '' you can teach monkeys to fly better than that'' also so many other classic lines in a very underated film in this day and age of computor generated pictures.

From the film ' Air america' when they are lost in low cloud flying the pilatus porter guy in the back says to the pilot ''we are VSF'' he looks back at him and requests explanation -- very seriously f****d !!

In the 1955 film "Out Of The Clouds" James Robertson Justice is Captain of a Boeing Stratocruiser about to depart London Heathrow.

A keen dispatcher drives out to ascertain why the flight has not departed. Justice launches into him with a blistering dressing down along the lines of:

"Young man this aircraft will not lift one inch off the ground until I and my crew are entirely satisfied with it."

This clip was shown on my pre-command course. It led to interesting discussions on the Captain's authority and tone. Comments varied from "over the top" to "he let the dispatcher off lightly!"

The Spirit of St. Louis/ with Jimmy Stuart
He lands his beat-up Curtiss Jenny on the Army field to enlist. Some Sargent throws a fit about it. Then the Jenny blows a tire all by itself and a flying wire snaps. Says Stuart as he plays Charles Lindburg:

"Brittle, isn't she!"

I almost hit the floor laughing. You have to see it. On a historical note, Lindbergh really was told he'd have to pay to have his plane removed. He asked,"how much?" They said, "ten dollars." So he took a lighter and set it on fire. It burned to a small pile of OX-5 and some change. He repeated,"how much?" "Uh, five dollars."

"Battle of Britain" is one of my all time favorites.
I recall a line where an RAF officer, his airfeild under attack gives an order to "Scuttle the wounded ducks", at which point non-flying Hurricaines are splashed with fuel and set alight.
Another really good line is from Flying magazine, from an issue dedicated to the fiftieth aniversary of the Battle of Britain.
A German officer is quoted as saying "The Hurricaine was a good airplane-to shoot down".

From Airport 1970....the scene as Patroni gets the stranded 707 out of the rut:
Observer: "The instruction book said that was impossible."
Patroni: "That's one nice thing about the 707. It can do everything BUT read"
They don't make them like that any more!

I suppose its strictly off thread as the key sequence of this introductory sequence is wordless.......an 8th AAF officer revisits his old base after buying the one time squadron mascot in a London antique shop....

Also Airport. 707 Capt to Patroni after bogging down his aircraft. Something like 'you can't talk to me like that, I've got more that 1,000,000 miles in the air!!!. ' Patroni's reply 'yes, and three feet in the ground!!'

From "People like us - airline pilots".

While explaining the glass cockpit to the reporter:

"what we've got here, for instance is the artificial horizon.
See the little aircraft there?
If I press this button on the control column I can shoot it down".

Reporter talking to cc:

"What would you think is the most difficult part of the job that you do?"

"Well it's a bit like being on the stage"

"You mean with all the makeup....?

Anything and everything from The Magnificent Men is wonderful.

Not strictly an aviation film but from "Into the Storm", about the Sir Winston Churchill war years.
"Bomber" Harris arrives for a meeting with Churchill in his magnificent
4 1/2 litre Lagonda tourer. Asked how the drive was he says that he got stopped for speeding and the constable told him he might have killed someone.
Harris replied...
" Young man, I kill thousands of people every night ".

Favourite line when watching an aviation film (not in the film itself). Happened about 20 minutes into the execrable remake of "The Flight of the Phoenix". (The original is one of my all-time favourites).

Mrs TTN - "Are you seriously going to sit and watch any more of this rubbish?"

I didn't.
