He bitch slaps Captain Robert Stack (actor) in the "High and the Almighty". The ultimate CRM technique. Works every time.

Hahaha...he shoulda turned around and slapped the taste out of the FE's mouth as well...just to grant him his wish.

Because you know the second John Wayne woulda walked off the flight deck, the FE woulda said to the CA, "I wished he would have slapped me like that..."

It was a DC-4, no FE. They did have a navigator though.

FE. As a FE once described himself to me as being a stagecoach driver. Seems that everytime he looked forward the only thing the could see were two horse's arses.

The 3rd guy on the flight deck in this movie was the navigator. There is no FE on a DC4. No INS, No Doppler, No nothin!

Actually, there were four guys on the flight deck. The fourth guy was the relief pilot.

Aye, it t'was until 1991. However, Dodie, entrusted me to keep his works alive, and that is why I have republished A Hostage To Fortune, The High and The Mighty, and Island In The Sky. Great writings from a great guy.
