1:24:03
The biggest we make...
1:24:05
would have to be the Albatross.
1:24:07
Horrible name.
1:24:10
It's a six-foot wingspan
parasol model.
1:24:13
But it's not my design because it's a glider,
and I only work on power models.
1:24:18
But you design the big stuff too.
Right, Elliott?
1:24:20
Planes that carry people.
Planes like the Phoenix. Right?
1:24:27
No, no.
1:24:29
Sizemore and Pratt
only build model airplanes.
1:24:33
But... that's who you design for.
1:24:37
I'm their chief designer, yes.
1:24:41
You build toy planes, man?
1:24:44
No, I most certainly
do not design toy planes.
1:24:50
A toy plane is one of those balsa wood
creations that run on a rubber band.
1:24:54
- Those are not toys.
- These are toys.
1:24:56
Those are not toys.
1:24:58
They're not full-sized aircraft either,
Elliott.
1:25:01
You see this shit?
He's a goddamn toy maker!
1:25:04
I think, Mr. Towns, you should appreciate
two very important things.
1:25:08
First of all, precisely similar
principles of aerodynamics...
1:25:11
apply to both scale
and full-sized aircraft.
1:25:14
- What is he saying?
- We should have waited, man.
We'd still have water left.
1:25:18
Air foil surfaces,
1:25:21
the whole pattern of heavier-than-air
construction are all precisely similar.
1:25:25
[ Mutters ]
We're gonna die out here.
1:25:27
The second thing you should realize
is that a model plane has to fly itself.
1:25:30
There is no pilot.
1:25:32
The design must be even more efficient
than that of a full-sized aircraft.
1:25:36
Well, I'm looking
through your catalog here...
1:25:39
and I don't see anything about
a flying sled with people on the wings!
1:25:44
They're toy airplanes!
1:25:46
What kind of crap is that?
1:25:48
My plane will fly.
1:25:50
You knew all along that you
was buildin' a toy airplane!
