Not from a film but real life........a few years back one of our Scottish high level sectors was giving re-route instructions to a Japanair flight entering Icelandic airspace....after 5 incorrect read backs the Japanair eventually got the route coreect and changed over to Icelandic control....out of the air came this dry laconic American voice saying " They didnt have that problem finding Pearl Harbour!!"

"Monkeys...."
"takatakatakataka!"
"Your ego's writing cheques your body can't cash"
"Left a bit, steady...right a bit steady, steady,steady, steady....bombs gone!"

Remember the 'Carling Black Label' advert featuring the 'Dambusters'
Have a look here -> YouTube - Dambusters
I also like the line from 633 Squadron
"You can kill a pilot,
but you can't kill a squadron"

You can teach monleys to fly better than that! (Battle of Britain)
It's not a 'plane, it's an aeroplane! (Reach for the Sky)
Steady, steady ... bomb gone (in a cool English accent) (Dambusters)
Airplane! (generally!)
Worst line - 'Copy that' - from many US films of late!
FOK

Air America,
After crashing through the canopy of the jungle and hanging their in the belts facing directly at the ground in a Huey.
" I thought you had this helicopter blessed this morning"
" I did but I had a feeling the monk wasn't concentrating"
And after them both discussing releasing their seat belts and falling to the ground via the cockpit window.
" Whats the procedure, who goes first"
" there's not really any hard and fast rules about crashing straight through a cockpit"
I think its this film that I grew up with that made be go the bush pilot route, fantastic.

Just found it on you tube, amusing after the crash.

From a little known Scottish sitcom 'The Highlife'
*Knocking on toilet door, opened by cabin steward*
Steward: Are you OK Captain Duff?
Captain: Well no I can't find the instruments or the ruddy co-pilot!
Steward: You're in the toilet sir!?
Captain: What the hell am I doing in there?
Steward: I don't know but I hope for your trousers sake you've finished!

For the more mature reader some lines from "Those Magnificent Men in there Flying Machines" They go uptitty up, they go..........
There is nozzink a German Officer cannot do.
To the sewerage farm lads!
That's the problem with these international events - too many bloody foreigners.
Have you got a knife? You're not going to commit Hari Kari? No I'm going to cut myself out of this wreck.
So, you're American? No Ma'am I'm from Texas.
Choose your weapons! Balloons and Blunderbus.
Any more?
