motorcycle the boy that fell broke his

arm bone I don't want you to break your

arm bones I could break my arm

you now get back by the tail and swing

it around when I tell you you grab the

wing it oh just a second later you're

over hurry up here comes another jackass

well how do you like highway landings

night

yes checking the gas is more or less the

job of the pilot are you okay mister I

think we're okay Joe Foss Paul Forrester

it seems you had a close call

yeah all right car almost hit her plane

seems to me it might have been the other

way around are you trying to get us into

a lawsuit I nearly busted my arm lady

his arm all of his bones are intact

let's take a look it feels okay but you

know sometimes it's hard to tell

busted mine once playing football

finished the half before I even noticed

it what's your name son Scott I'll tell

you what Scott squeeze as hard as you

can boy he's got quite a grip Thanks

call me Joe I guess we better take a

look at your car if you get a break in

your Good Samaritan routine Jones you

might try and get the ship back to the

airport

that's a real piece of work that woman

no question she's upset because you came

to help her yeah I reckon there's

nothing a woman hates more than making a

mistake when there's a man around who

told her not to do it in the first place

let's take a look at that car yours Jodi

please the pros

no just high school I might have gone on

but Uncle Sam had other plans for me

it's bleeding sure is

you got a cracked oil pan here well tell

problems are solved come on

perfectly safe there's no big deal it's

only a couple of miles to the airport

want you up front I think you best do

what your dad says I know what you're

thinking dad I've been hearing it since

I was six years old

Conrad Bennett's first law test pilots

always right it's what keeps him alive

Joe's so damn cautious and we're running

out of time I went to the bank this

morning and talked to Sam he says if we

can't show the investors some results

soon

we could lose everything one way or the

other we gotta get the hawk into the air

I feel brought you back it's made a

chance to apologize my behavior this

afternoon was inexcusable please forgive

me you're a real piece of work

no question yes I suppose I am

nonetheless I hope that you and the boy

with the broken arm will be our guest

for dinner the boy should have your ship

gassed up by now boss I'll go fetch it

I'll see you guys later Joe will you be

back for dinner

it's up to you we'll set a place for you

Joe you're gonna be coming back with you

no I got some work to do Oh tell you

what I was thinking about taking a ride

out into the desert it's okay with your

dad maybe you can hit you ride really

you checked with him oh I'm sure it'll

be fine let me know

thank you Paul this is my father

Conrad Bennett I guess I should have

prepared you

how do you do I'm Paul Forrester I've

heard a lot about you you're very kind

most people aren't so sensitive but I

know that Dad can hear us I know when I

talked to him he understands

he understands that's why he's afraid

afraid he's afraid for you all fathers

worry about their children don't they

[Music]

you

so I saw Holden hit the water and Clara

shoot he was all shut up

so I blew off the lid pop the seat and

went in after him that cost the

taxpayers about four mil four mil right

we're talking heavy bucks the cost of

the plane and everything that's right

you missed that camaraderie don't you

well I missed the trust we had in each

other we have to get some sleep thank

you for the fish I was thinking about

hanging out with Joe for a little while

Scott it's time to go to bed good night

Scotty it's late I'm not tired

stop hovering over me okay I'll be all

right I'll be in in a while

if that crack about trust was meant for

me it's misplaced I trust you I just

wish that you had a little more faith in

the hawk you said yourself that dad's

design is flawless it's just a long walk

between the blueprints and the flight

tests Jesse there's only one way to test

a new airplane and that's one step at a

time

I've always handled the timetable before

now all of a sudden you want to speed it

up why I'm only doing what Dad once yes

if there was the slightest chance he

knew or understood what kind of a hurry

you're in he'd tell you the same thing

you do it by the book he understands and

unlike you he has confidence in my

judgment another month I'll be through

checking her out then you can do

whatever you want with her but until

then she's mine you having a problem

with me aren't you now that I'm in

charge now that I'm not just the boss's

daughter why are you talking about Joe

whatever we are to each other until this

company gets on its feet I'm the boss

accept that

may I go now boss

hey barn er I thought you were gonna hit

the sack aren't we going for a ride

jasc your dad yeah he said it was okay

there's a helmet in the cab why don't

you see if it fits

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

this is terrific

how'd you find this place I like I'm

here when I got a problem to work out

helps put things in perspective amazing

and then water in the middle of the

desert

comes out of a fissure in the rock steps

drain bet you know about everything

cars horses planes boats yeah

you must been talking to Jessica yeah

I've raced a few cars and boats but

horses I just ride do it

your vanity kids drew no I missed out on

that one that your dad seems like a real

nice fella yeah he's nice he's just kind

of unusual that's all and seemed in a

long time now it's like

he's trying to make up for everything

never did know a kid who didn't think

these folks had him on too short of data

it'll work out

we better get in hey that's where this

thing don't you ever get on a bike

without it a busted arm you can fix but

you bust your head and you could you

could wind up like poor old Conrad

Bennett what happened to him anyway push

himself too hard and popped a gasket had

a stroke last January Jesse's been

running the company ever since why did

she talk to him like he's still in

charge because he's her dad to her he's

still the boss now she needs him more

than ever

[Music]

okay thank you yeah I got up to look for

Scot I can't find him well do his trucks

still here they must have gone for a

ride I don't worry Joe talks like a

daredevil but underneath all that

bluster he's really just a little old

lady believe me I know him better than

you do your son will be fine

your dress is very thin

does it bother you bother me

should it well it's just that some men I

guess I'm used to being treated like an

old airplane or something you must be a

wonderful photographer I'll bet you

photographed lots of beautiful models

probably were they prettier than me well

the last one was a motorcycle you're

much prettier

[Applause]

[Music]

Scot

look who's only a bike ride okay sorry

good night

good night Scott

[Applause]

this is amazing

not another plan under 100,000 that you

cut the tails in front that's why she

won't stall on you see Conrad's idea was

designed a plane that was idiot proof

this little wing up front is what keeps

you out of trouble I said there she is

what do you think is this hazy brighter

open shade we got a great sense of humor

um I wish you'd reconsider I'd be glad

to pay you in fact I was thinking of

hiring a photographer to get some

publicity shots are you sure you can't

stay we have to keep moving

your son sure seems to like Joe if you

jealous join the club he affects

everybody that way

jealous he can fly a plane better than

anybody and women fall all over him and

now it looks like your sons falling

under his spell too jealous is this

where you guys have been hiding hang on

Scottie Jess can I talk to you for a

minute if this is personal favorite for

later

strictly business okay we'll be right

back excuse that my car is all fixed we

can go now

Oh can't we stay around with Joe for a

couple of days I'm sure nobody find us

here why do you want to hang around here

Joe's neat guy you know he's a pilot

everything I'm a pilot

yeah I guess you are but Joe doesn't

have to stop and figure everything out

all the time

he's just a neat guy that's all we'll

stop and get our bags at the guest house

I want to say goodbye to Conrad Bennett

[Music]

oh I said I didn't want any nuts yes no

that's a sorry

hey thanks

this is the man who was taking pictures

of us tonight right it sure looks like

him only Oh what only he was wearing

different clothes this is the man right

yeah I think that's him okay

you tell me what you told the policeman

maybe I shouldn't have said anything I

mean it's pretty hard to believe I saw

what I saw even for me

then you just tell me what you remember

okay

on the road because I mean my bike just

slid out and then I seen this truck

coming and I looked around me and all of

a sudden the guy with the camera he was
