:47:04
You mean, I'm washed-up.
:47:06
No, no. I wouldn't put it that way.
:47:08
A man of your experience is always
gonna be valuable in the service.
:47:11
So what if you have
to give up flying a while?
:47:14
- You can keep running your squadron.
- Yeah.
:47:18
I'll be a great example for those boys,
parked in the office with my knitting.
:47:24
I guess it had to happen
sooner or later.
:47:28
It's tough to get yanked out of the ring
when the main event is about to start.
:47:32
- After you've trained all your life.
- You've trained plenty of other guys.
:47:36
If and when the main event does start,
they'll be in there pitching.
:47:39
Sure. Sure they will.
:47:43
Well...
:47:45
...it was a good show while it lasted.
:47:48
I would like to have finished
this pressure-suit job...
:47:51
...before the rocking chair got me.
:47:55
- Is that my diploma?
- Yeah.
:47:59
I better take it just to make it official.
:48:02
Say, do you know...
:48:05
...some other man who can
do this test job for us?
:48:08
Yeah. Yeah, I'll have
a good pilot for you.
:48:10
Thanks.
:48:13
Joe.
:48:15
I wish there was something
I could say...
:48:18
...but there never is, is there?
:48:34
Commander Blake.
:48:35
Yes?
:48:37
I just wanted to thank you for
giving me another chance.
:48:40
- Forget it.
- It's meant a lot to train under you, sir.
:48:44
Thanks. Just remember
one rule, Anthony:
:48:47
As a pilot, fight to be on top
and stay there.
:48:49
- You can't lick them from below.
- I won't forget that, sir.
:48:57
- Is she ready?
- Yes, sir.
:48:59
- Pull her out.
- All right, boys. Pull her out.
