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.

Not from a film, but from the 'Junkyard' pinball machine which I 'babysit' for a friend, who collects them and has run out of space:

"You're going down, FLYBOY!!!"
