How often do you....

[slide33]

- Watch the Mountains ! ! ! ! !

- Holy $#it, we're head to head - I can't believe we're doin' this!

- Engine 1 is out!!!! Engine 2 is out!!!!.

- Now, I'm not going to sit here and blow sunshine up your @$$!


I hope I never hear these things in my cockpit.

My favorite...

My favorite has always been "Yee haw! Jesters dead!"

 

[Joseph II]

"Request clearance for a fly-by"

"Negative...."

 

[flywithruss]

It was on TNN last night, unedited. What a flick ...

"Crashed and burned, huh Mav?"

My favorite ... I seem to use it all the time.

"We regret to inform that your sons are dead because they were stupid."

TopGun is a great (if cheesy) flick. Great flying scenes...good corny quotes, and Kelly McGillis looked great.

That being said, if someone quoted TopGun in the cockpit, I think I am required by our Flight Ops Manual, the POH, 14 CFAR Part 121, and sense of good taste...

To whack 'em upside the head with the QRH.

I'll just tap the brakes

 

[pilotx86]

TOP GUN RULES!!! haha!!!

"I want sum butts and I want em now...(CRASH) [beeeeeeeep] Thats TWICE!!!"

that scene is hilarious

 

[Patriot328]

Anytime someone quotes Top Gun in my cockpit I roll my eyes at them and tell 'em to shut the *@#k up. Of course, I believe the underlying reason is my insecurity in the fact I know EVERY SINGLE LINE from that movie myself....


This list is long, but distinguished.

So is my Johnson.

Shouldn't all these quotes be under that earlier thread "You might be a dorky pilot if..."?

Just kidding, gang. The flight scenes are great, and otherwise it's probably the best military recruitment/Kawasaki Ninja commerical ever produced.

Personally, I find myself quoting a lot of Coen Brothers movies (Raising Arizona, Big Lebowski, O'Brother...). Since most of the guys I fly with haven't seen these flicks, they just end up thinking I'm a freak. Okay, not too far off the mark, I guess....

"We thought you was a toad..."

 

[flight-crew]

Sometimes I'll say this to whoever I'm flying with...

"Say, have you figured it out yet?" They will say "What?" I'll say "Who's the best pilot".... and then snap my jaw like Iceman.

Or maybe I'll walk up to them in ops when they are sitting down, and I'll lean over towards them (take a sniff) and say "(their name) ----- You Stink!"


Or if we are getting delayed vectors or something like that I might say "We're way low on gas... Common MAV, let's land this sucker."

And I might have to set them straight at the end of the flight and say something like "You know what? You're everyone's problem, that's because everytime you go up in the air you're unsafe. I don't like you because you're DANGEROUS." If they play along and say "That's right Ice (pat my shoulder) Man, I am DANGEROUS"...... then it makes it all that much more fun.

John Goodman in Raising Arizona knocking over the bank: "FREEZE! Everybody get on the floor!"

...nobody moves...

Goodman: Why aren't you doing what I said?

Old man in line: Well, you told us to freeze. If'n I'm froze I can't rightly get on the floor can I? And if'n I get on the floor I ain't rightly frozen, am I?

I used that quote today too

 

[LR25]

"You have born to kill on your helmet, and a piece sign on your body armour, what is that, some kind of sick joke"

Full Metal Jacket-

"65 and a wake up, and Im a gone mother@#$%@, back to the world"

Platoon-

"Never get out of the boat, never get out of the boat!!"

Apocylipse Now-

Space Balls-

Man I feel like a tool now:

"Up there we gotta push it, that's our job."

-Viper

Seriously though the most frequent movie I hear quoted at work is definetly Office Space.

"Did you get the memo..."

 

[Freight Dog]

The best movie quote recently:

The news guy:"But sir, I'm a noncombatant!"
Sgt Major:"Ain't no such thing today, boy!"


- We Were Soldiers

Gutsiest move I ever saw, Mav.

 

[TurboS7]

When we do our military flying we use the Topgun sound track as boarding music, the guys love it.
