Flight

"Flight" is a riveting drama film directed by Robert Zemeckis and released in 2012. Denzel Washington leads an incredible cast, bringing his undeniable talent to the role of William "Whip" Whitaker, a skilled pilot with a troubled past. The movie takes us on an emotional journey through themes of addiction, redemption, and the human spirit.

Whitaker finds himself facing a life-altering situation when the plane he is piloting experiences a catastrophic mechanical failure. In a breathtakingly intense sequence, he manages to land the aircraft, saving the lives of most of the passengers. Initially hailed as a national hero, Whitaker soon becomes the subject of a rigorous investigation that reveals his struggle with substance abuse.

This deeply character-driven film delves into the complexities of addiction and the pressures faced by those in high-stress professions. Denzel Washington delivers a masterful performance, capturing the internal turmoil of a man torn between his addiction and his desire for redemption. His grasp of the character's emotional nuances is nothing short of brilliant, earning him critical acclaim and an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor.

The supporting cast of "Flight" is equally impressive. Kelly Reilly shines as Nicole, a recovering addict whom Whitaker meets in the hospital. Reilly brings depth and vulnerability to the character, adding an essential layer of humanity and compassion to the film. Don Cheadle delivers a stellar performance as Hugh Lang, Whitaker's lawyer, offering a captivating portrayal of a man caught between his duty and his personal opinions.

Notable performances include Bruce Greenwood as Charlie Anderson, Whitaker's loyal friend and union representative. Greenwood brings a steady presence to the film, acting as Whitaker's rock throughout the turbulence he faces. John Goodman injects some humor and charisma into the story as Harling Mays, Whitaker's enigmatic drug dealer. Goodman's portrayal adds a touch of levity, offering a respite from the weightiness of the narrative.

The soundscape of "Flight" is an essential element of the film, composed by Alan Silvestri. Silvestri's score perfectly complements the emotional beats and intense moments of the story, elevating the viewing experience. From adrenaline-pumping sequences to quiet introspective moments, each note enhances the narrative, tugging at the audience's heartstrings and adding depth to the characters' journeys.

A little tired. A quick turnaround for me,
A lot of young people. Good vibe.
A problem with alcohol dependency,
A reasonabIe request from a quiet, heroic man who has...
A series of Iies strung together by me,
A survivor reported she was assisting a kid.
A time for grieving
A what?
A woman from AA, she just came to see me whilst l was in rehab.
About 1 0:00 at the St. Regis, there's an executive buffet there.
About how beautiful every last breath of life is.
About my condition that morning,
About piloting an airliner drunk.
About the events on that flight.
About what you thought caused the crash.
AbsoIuteIy. However, remember, every situation is different.
Added to the NTSB's list of probable causes.
After a major incident like the one you had today.
After all the passengers get on board. ls that okay?

All right. We're not gonna make that. Our engines are burning up.
All right. Which one of you gentlemen is funding this enterprise?
All right. You just get on the front door make sure nobody comes in.
All the people that tried to help me along the way, but l
All the reps got a page and l just shot up my hand,
Alprazolam?
Also known as the elevator.
Amanda was kind enough to let me in. Thank you.
An airliner that crashed!
And 1 3th and 14th, l was intoxicated.
And a cocktail weenie?
And a whole bunch of other personal effects from the plane.
And again, like l said, you know, some of them will
And by driving, l mean a car.
And don't give me that your mother died...
And God knows you've been swamped by interviews and...
And Grandpa throws it, picks it up...
And he fucks me in the ass, huh?
And he picks it up! TeII him, Dad.
And he's got a higher plan for you.
And high on cocaine.
And how am l a liar?
And how long has Sleeping Beauty been out?
And I never toId the truth out there, obviousIy.
And I say to them, "I might have had two beers."
And if it is proven that your intoxication
And if you get a little too low,
And Iike many, we are out Iooking for answers.
And in some cases, register higher in an alcohol test.
And in turn, we're gonna protect your airline.
And Katerina Marquez.
And Ken Evans, your copilot,
And kept my wings, kept my false sense of pride.
And kill this tox report?
And l accept that.
And l am required as the lead on the Go Team
And l got to tell you, l'm in awe of what you did.
And l just can't get over how beautiful you are.
And l know you and Deana have been divorced for a while now,
And l need a coco puff.
And l need rehab? Okay.
And l want you to come with me.
And l was just hoping that you could meet us for breakfast.
And l wrote some non damaging responses.
And l'll be here for at least the next four or five years.
And l'm going to fight to get the NTSB to add "Act of God"
And l'm still saving a seat for you, right next to me.
And maybe l'm a sucker,
And more importantly,
And my whoIe Iife just became
And my...
And no eyewitnesses.
And now l sometimes wash hair in a salon.
And one tested positive for alcohol.
And pick up a package that says "veal" on it.
And placed in front of Whip with a chair behind it.
And posthumously from Camelia Satou
And rotate.
And see if she and Will want to come down...
And she in fact tested positive for alcohol,
And some torn ligaments in your left wrist.
And taking care of the injured. Thank you.
And that agent's here, so
And that any testimony you give here today
And that fat fuck's airline! Fuck you, Charlie! Fuck you!
And that is Ellen Block.
And that's fair.
And that's fair.
And that's why we need him.
And the actions of the piIots on SouthJet 227
And the banana boat is here.
And the elevator was frozen in a fixed position,
And the good news is you're in good condition.
And the hours leading up to the accident.
And the manager said you had not returned,
And the manifest with 1 02 souls on board.
And the next one will be
And the occupant is not current on her rent.
And the only people who would have had access
And the way you landed that plane was nothing short of a miracle.
And there's no physical evidence on the bottles.
And they don't fucking drink.
And they need someone to work the night shift and they asked me.
And they used a preservative in the blood
And they will ultimately rule on the cause.
And they're keeping him in a coma just to let the brain swelling go down,
And they're probably going to ask you
And this is going to sound real stupid
And together we'll save the world.
And we'll be covering some pretty important stuff,
And wheel his ass into the hearing!
And you continue to drink! And stumble around!
And you feel well enough, you can go home.
And you have no broken bones.
And you know why? Because l choose to drink!
And you say you're a masseuse? What kind of masseuse?
And you think they're gonna just open their checkbook and buy us all lunch?
And, yes, l got your fucking smokes right here.
And...
Answer the questions correctly.
Any problems, he'll handle it.
Anything else for you gentlemen?
Apologies. l can do this manually.
Apparently, you went to your ex wife's house drunk as a skunk,
Are there any other aIcohoIics present?
Are we gliding?
Are you aware that our investigators found
Are you aware that the plane you were piloting went down?
Are you decIaring an emergency?
Are you hinting here, I don't want to put words in your mouth,
Are you okay?
Are you suggesting that there may be more to this than meets the eye?
Are you sure l can't get you something?
Are you? You're the man of the house now?
As Captain Whitaker poIiteIy asked
As long as they're writing checks, tell them to write one for me, too.
As one of the probable causes.
As to what exactIy happened that day.
As you know, when a plane goes down,
Asking me questions about fucking pilot error.
At a level of .24.
At exactly 9:34, after flying 27 minutes without incident,
At least not without a walker or braces.
At the appropriate time,
AtIanta Center... SouthJet... 7. We are inverted.
Atlanta Center, this is SouthJet 227.
Atlanta Center, this is SouthJet 227. We are inverted.
Atlanta, SouthJet 227, where's that airport?
Attaboy. Attaboy. Head back. Swallow.
Avington Carr, he's the owner of the airline, he's on our side.
Avington Carr.
Banana boat's a coming. You're almost home.
Banana boat's coming.
Beautiful.
Because it forces me to be honest about who I reaIIy am.
Because l choose to drink!
Because l drank the vodka.
Because l was out the night before the crash, at dinner.
Because l'm an alcoholic.
Because of turbulence, there was no drink service on the flight,
Because someone put me in a broken plane.
Because there is a small problem.
Because you want him to go to...
Before we can say much more.
Between those two ugly clouds?
Blessed to be alive.
Blood was taken from each of these crew members,
Both my legs are crushed. My pelvis is snapped.
Brace position.
Breast cancer. She was only 54.
Bright sand beaches...
Broken collarbone, just, l mean, cuts.
Built that landing strip out there.
Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.
Bullshit. l do.
But are you going to argue with me that your physical state was tip top?
But are you hinting that this is suspicious?
But as far as the flight crew was concerned,
But as l said, the NTSB is required to make initial contact.
But at least l'm sober.
But before l do,
But everything's gonna be opposite,
But for the first time in my life,
But l did the research, Captain Whitaker.
But l know you have a doctor's appointment
But l'm here.
But maybe l should bring him in...
But maybe she and your son, Will, wanna...
But thank you. Thank you very much.
But that is not the reason why this happened.
But that plane,
But the condition of the plane.
But the flight attendants wiII be going through the cabin
But they did find two empty vodka bottles in the galley trash.
But they need him at the crash site.
But they said you'd gone home,
But they were uncapped and empty.
But they won't be answered today
But this isn't a trial,
But we feel good about him.
But you have some deep bruising in your left thigh
But you knew her outside of work, is that correct?
But you, Trina, you could be my second wife.
But, whatever. I wouId Iie about the name of my dog,
Call Harling Mays, man.
Call the police.
Calm down, calm down, calm down.

It was a perfectly ordinary day.

L've had a lot of time to think about it, all of it.
L've known you 1 1 years, Whip.
Ladies and gentIemen...
Ladies and gentlemen, fasten your seatbelts now.
Large orange juice.
Last time l checked,
Leave the house that l paid for? That's what you want me to do?
Left to their own devices,
Len's the president of the pilots' union.
Less than an hour after the accident,
Let it roll.
Let me be the first to say, "Congratulations."
Let me go get him. lt's a bit of a show.
Let me quote from an investigative summary.
Let me see you cut.

Locking the elevator in a down position,
Look at this shit.
Look at you, boy.

Looking at you in that box.
Looking here at the home of piIot Captain WiIIiam "Whip" Whitaker.
Lots of sugar and a couple of aspirins, okay, sweetie?

Maybe he overslept.
Maybe it has something to do with
Me and my friend Harling, we flew it to Jamaica.
Me, too. l'm happy to be here.
Me?
Meds? What the hell kind of meds are they giving you?
Miss Marquez was not only a colleague,
More importantly, how big a check you think l'm gonna have to write?
Morning.
Mr. Anderson, will be our contact for you.
Mr. Carr, we're going to fight to push all the fault
Mr. Whitaker,
Mr. Whitaker, do you now or have you ever had
Mr. Whitaker, that's fine.
My cancer might get cancer.
My car, it don't run.
My chances of ever flying again are slim to none.
My clients don't go to jail, Mr. Carr.
My college counselor wanted me to come and interview you.
My ex wife and
My ex wife.
My family just flew in from Utah.
My Iies wouId waIk me out that door.
My momma, she used to slur her words and get all chatty.
My name is Barry and I am an aIcohoIic.
My name's Trevor.
My plane.
My son.
My work here is finished.
Neither did my brother. lt was my father that wanted it.
Never forgive me. Some of them will.
Next thing you know... Bethel, Jamaica.
Nice folks for the last 1 3 months.
Nicole?
Nicole.
Nicole.
Nicole.
Nicole. You're going to be okay.
Nine days, two hours, 26 minutes. But who's counting?
No control at all, sir.
No control over that, either.
No DNA, no fingerprints to link them to anyone,
No meal service today.
No one came in or out besides room service.
No one could have landed that plane like l did.
No one.
No relationship?
No, Cami, sit down!

Nod if you can hear me and understand me.
Not a peep.

Not this fucking well shit.
Not yet.
Nothing happens in the Kingdom of the Lord by mistake, sir.
Nothing keeps that big dog down.
Nothing keeps you down, dog.
Nothing serious.
Nothing. No control.
Nothing's happening.
Now be a good boy,
Now can l please do my job on your behalf
Now in the good old U.S. ofA.,
Now we got to revert to manual control.
Now we're gonna look at four counts of manslaughter.
Now you think any other pilot could have landed that plane and saved more lives?
Now you're, like, freaking out on me and...
Now, an initial report shows that
Now, l've done all this, l've only been here a few days,
Now, Margaret, Evans and Camelia Satou,
Now, please!
Now, the MRls show that you have some strained tendons
Now, they come out here every day.
Now, we walk in there like this, with this, we're done.
October 1 1th, October 1 2th,
Of a reaI American hero. Is that your reading of it?
Of lies.
Of the 1 02 souls on board, we lost six.
Oh, come on.
Oh, Dad, where'd you get that arm?
Oh, fuck, Nicole, l know you're in there!
Oh, God.
Oh, God.

Oh, yeah, no,
Oh, yeah?

Oh, yeah. Yes, he's my brother.
Oh, you heard. Are you a pilot?
Oh! Nothing like a little 30 knot crosswind
Oh! There's our man. Hey!
Oh. She's all right.
Oh. Thank you, Doctor.
Okay, all right. Then let me stay with you.
Okay, baby, we're gonna do
Okay, good. Okay, here's the deal, though...
Okay, got it.
Okay, here we go. I've got controI.
Okay, here we go. l've got control.
Okay, man?
Okay, Mr. Whitaker, we're about done.
Okay, that's a workman's comp claim, part of the union contract.

Okay. When do they want to do that?
Okay. Yeah. l'd...
Okay. You give a mayday,
On Hazel and Ninth.
On press and media.
On second thought, just bring the booze,
On the count of three, l want you to pull it up,
On the morning of the accident,
On the morning of the accident...
On the three days leading up to the accident,
On the three nights before the accident, October 1 1th...
Once you realize all the random events in your life are God,
One hundred.
One of the most lenient drunk driving countries in the world,
One on each side.
One was disqualified for technical reasons,
One's missing.
Onto the manufacturer, Jackson Ridgefield.
Or "Holethello" or "Butt Holethello."
Or at least some fucking Palladone, for Christ's sake.
Or my son visiting me in prison. And...
Or pilot error.
Or whether you thought l had anything to drink.
Or you limped away.
Order up a steak, get a movie.
Our flight time to Atlanta is approximately 52 minutes.
Our investigators have concluded
Out of your control.
Outside of work?
Oxygen check.
Pay him.
People are either drawn to me, or they pretend like they can't see me.
Pick it up, Pop.
Pick it up.
Pick me up some clothes and my phone charger.
PIease Ieave a message and it wiII be returned.
PIease Ieave a message and it wiII be returned. Thank you.
Placed them in simulators,
Please be seated, sir. Sir.
Please be seated, sir. This is not a courtroom.
Please.
Poor maintenance of the equipment by the airline.
Power back. Power back!
Praise Jesus.
Praise Jesus.
Probably Canadian. We don't want this shit.
Probably looking for me.
PuII up. Sink rate.
Pump failure, both engines!
Put that on your head.
Questions remain about the flight,
Questions they might ask you under oath,
Random act of God? l don't think so.
Re created the events that led to this plane falling out of the sky.
Ready? One, two, three.
Really.
Really.
Remember, if they ask you anything about your drinking,
Report back on course.
Retract the gear, trim us nose down, okay?
Right.
Right. And l had two glasses of wine,
Roger that. Left 1 70, climb and maintain niner thousand.
Roger, 227.
Roger, 227.
Roger, 227.
Run it back! Run it back! Come on, Knuckles!
Same way l believe God should hit the buffet,
Say, "I Iove you, Trevor."
Say, "l love you, Trevor."
See y'all on the dark side of the moon.
See?
Seven hundred, my ass.
She can ask you.
She do anal, $2,000, one hour.
She got the knife out for me?
She held it together for so long, l couldn't even tell how sick she was.
She loved me.
She saved the boy's life, that's...
She still owes me $1 ,1 00!
She was incredible.
She'll do.
She's here, too. She's fine.
She's my sponsor, the one that's been helping me.
She's the head of the NTSB investigation.
She's the one that's gonna be asking you the tough questions.
Shit, Fran!
Shit, l'll take another hit.
Shit!
Shit!
Show her the pipe.
Shows our decay 'cause we are but cIay
Since her toxicology report is the only toxicology report
Sink rate. PuII up.
Sir, it's 8:50.
Sir, look at your airspeed.
Sit down and take some stills for me or something.
Sit tight. l'll be in Atlanta in a minute.
Sit.
Six counts of manslaughter is life in prison.
Six dead on that plane, someone has to pay.
Six people died.
Slow down, slow down. Hey, l'm sorry, all right?
Slow down.
So he can save your fucking union!
So it'd be nice to have you there.
So l can pick up my car.
So l wouldn't worry about it too much. l can handle this.
So make sure you trim us nose down.
So many beautiful things to see.
So she's very limited in the kinds of questions
So that's how I got the nickname "Two Beer Barry."
So the cops got a flashIight on me behind the dumpster.
So we're figuring we meet here at 9:00 for breakfast in the room
So we're gonna ask that you remain in your seats
So what did you do last night?
So why are we here? We're good.
So why do we need a lawyer from Chicago?
So you do know Captain Whitaker. You are friends.
So you just shower up and come on down.
So you may be with relatives, which l understand,
So you must be feeIing pretty good.
So,
So, as soon as we clear your concussion
So, it's all in there.
So, just... There's half a dozen of them.
So, l'm going to head out.
So, Len Caldwell really wanted to get here this morning.
So, what's the deal, Lenny?
So, yeah, we wanted to make this as easy as possible on you.
So?
So...
So...
So... That doesn't mean anything.
Some baseball bat bullshit.
Some of them never will.
Some of them were able to hear my apology.
Some say they "Harling" knew me.
Somebody give me a hand here!
Soon.
Sounds like a nice restaurant. Now, which one was it?
SouthJet 2... 7, did you say inverted?
SouthJet 227, 30 degrees right approved.
SouthJet 227, Atlanta Center.
SouthJet 227, Atlanta Center. I see your position.
SouthJet 227, Atlanta.
SouthJet 227, Atlanta. Say your intentions.
SouthJet 227, Atlanta...
SouthJet 227, did you say inverted?
SouthJet 227, I see you descending through 1,000.
SouthJet 227, Orlando departure, radar contact.
SouthJet 227, Orlando departure, what's your ride Iike?
SouthJet 227, Orlando, you need to check your Mode C.
SouthJet 227, say aItitude.
SouthJet 227...
Speaking for the pilots' union, sir,
Speed brakes!
Spend 1 ,000 bucks, or you want to make a cash deal with me?
Stay focused.
Stop it! That's enough!
Sure. Any time, son.
Sure. Why not?
Take one step back, please.
Take the vodka with you.
Taylor Street.
Thank God that's over.
Thank you very much.
Thank you,
Thank you, brother. Shit, l'm back.
Thank you, sir. And God bIess you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you. And thank you for letting me stay in your house.
Thank you. Fell apart at 30,000 feet.
Thank you. Okay.
Thank you. Thank you very much. l feel good.
Thanks for coming. Glad you got my message.
That articulates the horizontal stabilizer,
That audio is tragic and compelling.
That bought us a little time.
That came from the back.
That checks. You want a hit?
That could be life in prison.
That crash was preordained.
That guy was a trip, huh?
That happen to us, it's bullshit.
That has been known to cause fermentation,
That is admissible in this hearing,
That is affirm. We are in an uncontrolled...
That Katerina Marquez
That knee hurting you?
That l would like to play at this point.
That made the tail of the plane explode?
That may have impaired your ability to perform yourjob?
That may take a day, maybe three. Okay?
That means no bars, no drugs...
That okay with you?
That plane was doomed the moment you sat in that cockpit.
That sky gonna hold?
That the jackscrew snapped
That was it.
That we give his famiIy some peace.
That would have had access to the beverage trolley.
That's a good question.
That's a nice camera.
That's a pocket of smooth air squatting right over Kissimmee.
That's all right, honey, l'm on the list. Harling Mays.
That's funny, though, you know, they only found two bottles.
That's funny?
That's generic Xanax.
That's great, Deana. That's great.
That's how the judge explained it to me.
That's it, Charlie.
That's me and that's Mark Mellon,
That's my kind of place.
That's not true. That's not true.
That's okay, it's okay.
That's right, but we're good.
That's right.
That's right. Christ the King First Baptist Church
That's what we have in common, Nurse Ratched.
That's when the rain kicked up.
That's why you get high?
That's... You don't have to worry about that.
The 1 02 souls on board, including the flight crew,
The air might get a IittIe cranky,
The aircraft was in a relatively stable glide
The airline will try to prove equipment failure,
The beating the BuIIdogs put on the Gators Iast faII.
The beverage service on the plane, is that correct?
The blood's having a hard time getting back to your heart.
The current information states that
The elevator feels really stiff, sir.
The FAA and the NTSB took 1 0 pilots,
The FAA, they took away my pilot's license.
The guy in unit 1 just told me you stayed here last night!
The insurance companies can have the goddamn airline.
The John the Baptist Pentecostal Mission.
The last time was 1 6 months ago and paid for by SouthJet Airlines.
The loss of the elevator was, and l quote our report,
The manufacturer in turn is gonna try and prove
The meds they're giving me, they're messing me up.
The Moor comes in, finds you in bed with one of his nurses.
The morning of the flight.
The news crews showed up and then the police escort you out.
The NTSB Go Team also collects blood, hair and skin samples
The NTSB has created an animated simulation
The NTSB is coming back tomorrow to finish taking a deposition from me.
The NTSB is up my ass with a flashlight.
The NTSB sends a Go Team to the crash site immediately.
The one guy!
The pilots' union works closely with the NTSB.
The plane was fucked, Charlie. lt was doomed.
The plane you're flying goes down?
The protocol is that the NTSB has to be the first
The rep from your pilots' union,
The service was so nice.
The speed brakes, the gear, everything.
The storm, after we took off,
The testing was done incompetently.
The threads on this screw are almost entirely gone.
The toxicology equipment they used was last calibrated in June of 2009.
The transponder recorded a loss in altitude
The turkey sausage is excellent.
The two flight attendants,
The union has great people for us to talk to.
The union's gonna release a statement on your behalf,
The whole country likes baseball.
The wing snapped off and drove the engine cowling into
Then come with me.
Then tell him it's a two way street.
Then that solves everything.
Then, at 9:42, according to the data recorders,
There aIways is.
There is all kinds of crazy news people out here.
There is no physical proof that you were intoxicated on that plane,
There is only one judge, sir.
There it is.
There she is, there she is.
There were five crew members on board
There you go, man. What time is it?
There's 400 cash.
There's a flight. We're gonna miss the flight.
There's a gram in here.
There's a whole lot of people out there whose mothers die
There's something l need to show you.
There's the banana man. All right. Now focus up, big dog.
They all had clean tox reports, so that only leaves you and...
They are confident they wiII soon be abIe to determine
They call it chemo brain.
They can be tough, but you just gotta be sharp.
They did. lt's perfectly intact.
They do a dangerous job. They know it.
They don't get settlements like the passengers.
They find the flight data recorder?
They get the results of this test?
They helped pull survivors out of the wreckage.
They interview the passengers. They hold public hearings.
They keep cancer treatment in the basement.
They run the investigation.
They think because l'm close to the other side,
They're in the garbage. Vodka, too.
They're saying, "Sweet Jesus, what a stud that pilot is."
They're staking out all my houses anyway.
They've already done that. ln the hospital.
Think if it would have sheared off completely,
Thirty.
This accident is not Iike any other accident.
This event, although it's tragic in its loss of life,
This guy's a real peach.
This is a broken plane.
This is a surprise.
This is Hugh Lang, he's an attorney from Chicago.
This is Mark MeIIon, stiII on the hunt, from midtown AtIanta.
This is not the appropriate time.
This is outside your condo. lt's a zoo.
This is the jackscrew on the tail assembly
This is the NBC affiIiate in Athens. We're Iooking to...
This is the Taliban, okay? Very heavy. Okay?
This part was suggested as a maintenance replacement
This remote isn't working.
This shit...
This toxicology report states that you were drunk
Those are difficult images to watch.
Those are your words, sir, not mine.
Three of these tests came back negative,
Tiki is my partner in this new series.
Tiki, that's your name?
To exercise the old sphincter muscle.
To handle the criminal side of Captain Whitaker's situation.
To highlight a key moment on board flight 227,
To keep you out of the media. Are you hiding something?
To make contact with you. l can't...
To make initial contact with you
To roll the plane upside down, is that correct?
To shake me down for fucking money. That's great.
To the 40, to the 50! And touchdown!
To the meeting.
To those bottles would be the flight crew.
Tobacco's but an Indian weed
Told a newspaper that "God landed that plane."
Too Iow. Terrain.
Too Iow. Terrain.
Too Iow. Terrain.
Too old. Fifteen.
Tough deal, man, but you walked away.
Toxicology analysis was performed and
Trevor, find Daddy, baby. He's over there by Mr. Benton.
Trina did not drink that vodka.
Trina looked so beautiful in there. Didn't you think so?
Trina Marquez did not drink the vodka
Trust me. Trust him.
Trying to get out of this shitty air, if that's all right with you, junior.

Two crew members and four passengers.
Two crew, four passengers.
Two days.
Two single service vodka bottles in the galley trash bin?
Two small whiffs first,
Until the hearing. l won't leave the house.
V1 ,
Very rare. God chose me.
Wait a minute, slow down.
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
Wait, trim down? What are you going to do?
Wait, wait, Iet me get that.
Wait.
Walk around is complete.
Was it the fact that you got on the plane still drunk from the night before?
Was that your wife?
Was the cause of the death of the four passengers,
Was the water warm?
Was very severe.
Was.
Water! Water now, chief, you.
We are in a dive! We have lost vertical control.
We are not the same. l don't suck dick to get high, okay?
We are putting the narrative back into porn, baby.
We both hate me.
We can leave before noon.
We can maintain aItitude Iike...
We can maintain altitude like this.
We don't want to see your airline go away.
We enjoy the contract you have with us.
We gotta do something to stop this dive.
We gotta do something to stop this dive.
We had to give them access to everything.
We hadn't talked in a while, and this whole thing happened.
We have more questions than answers
We lost all power!
We lost the left engine!
We need a block of altitude to work the problem
We need everybody in brace positions.
We need to dump the fuel. Do it!
We pitched nose down.
We spend all our time trying to control all these things
We spent some time together.
We spent those last seven months together
We stiII have no sighting and no comments
We want the premium stuff, the blue label,
We went on an overnight fishing trip about two hours south of here.
We were just talking about your copilot's wife.
We won't have beverage service today,
We'd all be dead.
We'd trade stories about boys and whatever.
We'II have you on the ground in AtIanta in 40 minutes.
We'll go in the morning.
We'll go straight to Jamaica, we'll go right to the local hospital.
We're all right. We're flying.
We're approaching our maximum airspeed.
We're at 1 29!
We're at a positive rate.
We're declaring an emergency.
We're dinosaurs, Whip.
We're experiencing some rough air, encountering some severe downdrafts.
We're flying. Listen, we're level.
We're flying. We're IeveI.
We're gliding. Pitch for glide.
We're going to get some fucking grace?
We're going to keep the patch on for a few days.
We're going to roII it.
We're going to roll it, okay?
We're gonna have to wait untiI some of those answers come in
We're gonna need drag.
We're gonna protect Captain Whitaker,
We're gonna set it down there.
We're gonna start descending any second now.
We're gonna thread the needle.
We're in an uncontrolled dive descending out of 21 ,000 feet.
We're in our climb now. Over.
We're losing oil pressure!
We're losing power in the right!
We're losing the left engine.
We're not talking about funerals right now, Captain.
We're out of 1 5,000.
We're putting a whole new spin on the beast with two backs, baby.
We're talking about prison time.
We're the same, you and me.
We're tweaked. Okay? l'm sorry.
We've dumped our fuel.
We've got 45 minutes, okay?
We've got a jammed stabilizer or something.
We've got some rough chop, l'd say moderate to...
We've lost hydraulics.
We've lost our hydraulics and it feels like our pitch control.
We've shifted suspicion away from you.
Wednesday, October 1 2th or Thursday, October 1 3th,
WeII, Ken and Vicky Evans, thank you both very much.
Well, Hugh specializes in criminal negligence.
Well, imagine your son, Trevor, in this church,

"A catastrophic event from which recovery was improbable
"and allowed the aircraft to level off,
"and allowing him to execute a forced landing in an open field."
"and stable flight impossible."
"bold and remarkable.
"By inverting the plane, Captain Whitaker arrested the descent
