:23:00
You know, some people get airsick,
but I never do.
:23:04
I must have an iron constitution.
:23:07
- I'm all right.
- Good.
:23:10
I guess what's really bothering me
is my whole life.
:23:14
I really can't figure
where Elaine and I went wrong.
:23:18
You know what it's like
when two people share the same space.
:23:23
Something happens.
Your vibes go out of synch.
:23:30
I thought we shared
a very special kind of love.
:23:34
I'm not sure
I know what love is any more.
:23:39
I guess it all started at the trial.
:23:42
They had to cover up for the crash,
so they made me the scapegoat.
:23:46
I had no one to turn to.
:23:48
I'm sure you've had
the same experience yourself.
:23:51
I couldn't believe
what was happening to me.
:23:56
I think it's important
we establish a few facts
:23:59
so these people can make
a fair decision.
:24:02
First, were you not the chief test
pilot for the lunar shuttle XR-2300?
:24:07
Yes.
:24:09
On the fifth of October this year,
that shuttle crash-landed.
:24:13
Were you not the pilot
on that flight?
:24:16
Yes, but I wasn't...
:24:17
And, Mr Striker, is it not true
:24:22
that that crash was a direct result
of your incompetence?
:24:25
No! The problem was with that ship,
not with me.
:24:29
The wiring was shorting out
under high temperatures.
:24:32
That thing was a flying deathtrap.
:24:37
The fact is, gentlemen, nothing
serious was wrong with that ship.
:24:40
Ted Striker folded up
on the approach.
:24:43
That's a lie!
:24:44
Order! Order!
:24:47
On March 5, 1980, flight 209 into
Chicago lost its crew in midair.
:24:53
And on that fateful night,
Ted Striker saved that plane.
:24:58
I'd like to call one of the
passengers from that flight,
