Hot Shots, part deuix? In a parody of Apocalypse Now where Charlie Sheen in a river patrol boat passes his old man sailing in the opposite direction.

How about " Now, you got a yellow and black handle here and one here - you pull it. The command will be "eject, eject, eject. Three times, you got it?"

Yes, "eject, eject, eject. Do I say roger or...just do it or what?"

" You even say "huh," you'll be talking to yourself...
'cause I'll be gone."

Flight of the Intruder.

My personal favourite with everyday applications on the flightdeck:

"Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with facts."
