over the Dakotas,
backed up all the way to Utah.
If she decides to push over the Great
Lakes, it could get plenty soupy.
What about that southern route
around Tulsa?
I double-checked
the terminal forecast,
and the wind's aloft
and IFR ceilings all the way.
Where do they top out?
Light scattered cover
at 20,000, icing around 18.
- Looks like over Denver is best.
- Denver it is.
Sorry, Clarence.
Latest report shows everything's
socked in from Salt Lake to Lincoln.
Hi, Roger. Glad to have you aboard.
Victor, this is Roger Murdock.
Victor Basta.
- How do you do?
- Nice to meet you.
I was telling Victor
I reviewed the area report
for 1600 hours through 2400.
There's an occluded front
stalled over the Dakotas.
There you go. Thank you.
Is Elaine Dickinson on this flight?
The whole flight crew has boarded.
Let me see.
Oh, yes. She is on board.
I'd like one ticket to Chicago.
No baggage.
- Smoking or non-smoking?
- Smoking, please.
There. Have a nice trip.
Striker, this is Red Leader Four.
Primary target covered by fog.
Decision to proceed is yours.
The decision is yours...
is yours...is yours...
Golly, that white fellow
should stay away from my wife,
or I will punch him.
Yes, he is wrong for doing that.
I knew a man
in a similar predicament,
and he ended up being sorry.
Don't be naive, Arthur.
Each of us faces
a clear moral choice.
Early to bed, early to rise makes
a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
How true!
Golly!
Nervous?
Yes.
First time?
No. I've been nervous lots of times.
Hi. We'll be taking off real soon,
so I better fasten you in tight.
Thank you.
Oh, Mother, this is so exciting!
I know, but remember,
you must get some rest.
That's good advice. You relax,
and I'll be back after takeoff.
Thank you.
- I'm going to miss you so much.
- I'm going to miss you, too.
Promise you'll write?
Every day.
Bill!
Better get on board, son.
All aboard!
209er to ground control.
We're ready to taxi.
- Goodbye, Bill!
- Goodbye, darling!
I love you, darling!
209er, taxi to runway 19er.
Goodbye, darling!
Have your picture taken the minute
you get there and send me one.
OK. Here, hurry.
It's your watch. You shouldn't.
You're going to need this.
It's all right. It doesn't work.
- Bill!
- Goodbye, darling!
Bill!
Bill! Bill!
I'll keep it with me all the time.
Goodbye, darling.
Take care of yourself. Goodbye.
- Flight 209er - clear for takeoff.
- Roger.
- LA departure frequency 123.9er.
- Roger.
- Request vector. Over.
- What?
Flight 209er, clear for vector 324.
- We have clearance, Clarence.
- Roger, Roger.
What's our vector, Victor?
- I want radio clearance. Over.
- That's Clarence Oveur. Over.
- Roger.
- Huh?
- Roger. Over.
- Huh? Who?
Do you feel all right, sir?
Oh, I haven't flown for a long time.
Good evening.
This is Captain Oveur speaking.
We'll be cruising
at 36,000 feet this evening...
Relax and enjoy your flight.
Would you like something to read?
Do you have anything light?
How about this leaflet,
"Famous Jewish Sports Legends"?
Yes. Thank you.
- Ted! What are you doing here?
- I've got to talk to you.
You shouldn't have come.
I don't have time now.
- Stewardess?
- Excuse me.
But...
No wonder you're upset. She's lovely.
And a darling figure.
Supple, pouting breasts, firm thighs.
It's a shame you two
don't get along.
Yes, I know.
Things used to be different.
I remember when we first met.
It was during the war.
I was in the air force,
stationed in Drambuie,
off the Barbary Coast.
I used to hang out
at the Magumba Bar.
It was a rough place.
The seediest dive on the wharf,
populated with every reject and
cut-throat from Bombay to Calcutta.
It was worse than Detroit.
The mood in the place was ugly.
You wouldn't be there unless
you knew how to use your fists.
A fight broke out almost every night.
I didn't go there that night
to fall in love.
I just wanted a couple of drinks.
And suddenly, there
