Time on type
Trashy film with Harrison Ford acting heroic in Central America.
He asks the Huey pilot before take-off "Do you have time in type?"
pilot looks at watch and replies "9 o'clock..."
LOL

Similar to the episode of "Tales of the golden monkey" when the pilot (Jake Cutter?) is asked over the radio for his present position. He looks out of the window of his flying boat (over the sea, out of sight of land) and immediately reads back his Lat & Long position!
Damned smart, those flying boat boys....

That was a quality program...they should re-run it. Actualy it was a bit naff...but the nostalgia
On the subject, does anybody else remember the pilot episode of the 6-million dollar man.
Our hero was a test pilot who had crashed, been rebuilt, then sent off on various secret missions. On his first he spent the second half of the episode running around trying to find a pilot so that he could escape in a DC-3 that happened to be lying around.
Why couldn't he fly it himself?
