Quotes

Chain Lightning

Edit
  • Lt. Col. Matthew "Matt" Brennan: [after helping her out of a badly damaged plane that she brought in for a rough landing] Are you all right?
  • Pilot: I guess I hit the brakes too hard.
  • Lt. Col. Matthew "Matt" Brennan: Yeah... yeah, I see what you mean.
  • Pilot: I'll do better tomorrow.
  • Lt. Col. Matthew "Matt" Brennan: There isn't gonna' be any tomorrow. You just put the Brennan School of Aviation out of business.
  • Pilot: I'm sorry.
  • Lt. Col. Matthew "Matt" Brennan: Forget it.
  • [Matt Brennan is doing test trials in the air]
  • Leland Willis: Brennan, do you hear? Bring that plane down or you'll never fly again.
  • Lt. Col. Matthew "Matt" Brennan: How do you want it Willis, the easy way or the hard way?
  • Leland Willis: I don't want any more tests. Understand Brennan? No more tests.
  • Lt. Col. Matthew "Matt" Brennan: OK Willis, the hard way.
  • [Matt pulls the microphone plug out and puts the jet into a climb]
