:02:03
Thought you'd meet me with
a crash truck and fire engine?

:02:06
No, sir, a whiskbroom and a dustpan.
:02:08
- Get the instruments, will you?
- Aye, aye, sir.

:02:15
Works like a charm. I hoisted her
back to 10 G and didn't even get hazy.

:02:18
I'm afraid to say it,
but we may have something.

:02:20
I'm not afraid to say it.
:02:22
- Aren't you a bit green to dive alone?
- Yeah.

:02:24
Ground's hard when you
bounce a plane off of it.

:02:27
But you see, with this belt, you won't.
:02:29
Some real pilot better check it
before we get excited.

:02:31
Of course we're gonna check on it.
:02:33
Test it, send it to Washington,
ask them to equip other groups...

:02:36
...so they can check it.
- Fine. I hope it works out.

:02:39
I envied you up there, Doug.
:02:41
Being glued to the ground,
I feel as if I'm doing only half the job.

:02:44
What are you talking about?
You do more than any two of us.

:02:47
It's funny how a guy's mind works
when he's up there flying.

:02:49
Just before I put her into that dive,
I kept thinking to myself:

:02:53
"There's two kinds of blackout
this belt may whip.

:02:55
Our kind and the sort they're having
over London right now."

:03:00
Up.
:03:01
Down. Up.
:03:03
- Down. Up.
- Can we have a little music with this?

:03:05
Down. Sure, what do you want?
Some boogie-woogie? Up.

:03:09
Down. That's enough.
Sit down. Relax.

:03:12
- Let me see the chart, will you?
- Here.

:03:17
All right. Your Schneider index
seems too good to be true these days.

:03:20
The result of clean living
and high thinking.

:03:22
Commander?
:03:24
Dr. Rogers, how long do I have to keep
on taking these Schneiders anyway?

:03:27
I know it's a nuisance,
but we have to track changes...

:03:30
...in pulse and blood pressure.
:03:31
It's one way of determining
if you should continue flying.

:03:34
I think it's a lot of bunk.
Come on, Hill.

:03:39
Is that all?
:03:43
Look. Washington's approved the belt
for further tests.

:03:46
- It has? Swell.
- Congratulations, doctor.

:03:48
Washington doesn't care
what it approves of these days.

:03:51
When do we go?
When do we start testing?

:03:53
A couple carriers are due next month
for a bombing problem.

:03:56
Couldn't be better. That'll give us
a chance to try it in group action.

:03:59
- Better take a look at that chart.
- Come on, Tim.
