{1228}{1270}Engine two looks fine. How's number one? {1273}{1337}Did a compression|check. Engine one looks fine. {1357}{1381}We love you, Amelia! {1384}{1408}Good luck, Amelia! {1410}{1475}Miss Earhart, do you really|think you'll break the record this time? {1478}{1529}{y:i}She will fly the world's full circumference, {1532}{1645}{y:i}24,902 miles,|to travel across the South Atlantic, {1647}{1699}{y:i}crossing Africa, over India::: {1702}{1750}After this 'round-the-world flight,|Miss Earhart, {1753}{1801}are you gonna give up long-distance flying? {1804}{1853}Not while there's still life left in me. {1855}{1899}I fly for the fun of it. {1986}{2022}Good luck! {2025}{2058}All right, give us a big smile! {2060}{2096}We love you, Amelia! {2098}{2135}Thank you. That's enough. {4195}{4250}Mr. Balfour, come in, over. {4262}{4294}Mr. Putnam. {4297}{4369}The headwinds were stronger|than they knew when they took off. {4371}{4465}{y:i}I recalculated the fuel:|Lt'll cost them nine percent: {4524}{4559}Nine percent. {5725}{5777}{y:i}When I saw that little plane, {5779}{5841}{y:i}it lifted me above the Kansas prairie: {5969}{6013}{y:i}I had to fly: {6212}{6309}{y:i}My daddy had the wanderlust:|That's why I like to keep moving: {6484}{6549}{y:i}Flying lets me move in three dimensions: {6866}{6935}{y:i}Who wants a life imprisoned in safety? {7060}{7140}Miss Earhart?|Mr. Putnam will see you now. {7318}{7397}Send the papers|over this afternoon. Thank you, bye. {7409}{7468}- Miss Earhart?|- Mr. Putnam? {7470}{7495}Please, sit. {7601}{7669}I'm told you want to fly|across the Atlantic Ocean. {7671}{7725}- I do.|- Why do you want to fly? {7735}{7798}- Why?|- Why do you want to fly? {7834}{7884}Why does a man ride a horse? {8001}{8053}Because he wants to, I guess. {8102}{8150}Three women have died trying. {8152}{8196}Two others have escaped with their lives. {8198}{8274}If you do make it, you will be the first, {8277}{8358}which is the real attraction|for both of us, I expect. {8370}{8444}Always nice to know|what the real attraction is. {8467}{8569}The plane was bought from|Admiral Byrd by Amy Guest, a socialite, {8582}{8637}who's asked to find an American. {8640}{8716}Educated, well-spoken, a flier {8748}{8809}and preferably physically attractive. {8812}{8839}Why would that matter? {8842}{8911}Because she wants|the world to pay attention. {8920}{8971}And pretty girls command more attention. {8974}{9016}Was that your advice? {9029}{9128}{y:i}There'll be a contract for the girl's|story with The New York Times: {9139}{9216}Also a book|to be published under her name. {9234}{9319}But all the money|from this will go to Mrs. Guest. {9333}{9361}Except for the part that goes to you. {9364}{9388}Well, this is America, {9390}{9478}and therefore I am obligated to|make as much money as I can. {9636}{9702}You have a wonderful laugh, Miss Earhart. {9733}{9782}You said she wants a flier. {9795}{9842}Don't get your hopes up. {9860}{9924}The celebrated Wilmer Stultz will be pilot. {9926}{10021}There will be a male co-pilot|who will also serve as navigator. {10044}{10126}The woman will be purely a passenger. {10280}{10392}Take Lindbergh. I published his book|three months after his historic flight. {10394}{10485}Must be wonderful to actually know him,|to be a friend of his. {10488}{10533}Friend? Good God, no. {10535}{10583}Can't stand the man. {10597}{10669}He's a stiff-ass, sanctimonious,|boring prude. {10679}{10714}Was a bestseller though. {10733}{10823}Why would anyone want to read|a book written by a passenger? {10826}{10929}Because the hook is that they're gonna|make the woman commander. {10946}{10985}The pilot will sign a contract {10988}{11036}saying he's under|your direction and control. {11038}{11068}It would be your flight. {11070}{11116}My fraud, you mean. {11165}{11246}A very distasteful word|in book publishing, Miss Earhart. {11249}{11280}I don't know, Mr. Putnam. {11282}{11347}My dream has always been|to fly across the Atlantic, {11350}{11435}but the way you want me to do it is far|from the way I've envisioned it. {11438}{11475}Let me be frank. {11485}{11546}With your level of flight experience,|I wouldn't place you {11549}{11621}anywhere near the group|that would normally be considered for this, {11623}{11688}if a woman were to do any flying at all. {11698}{11767}Miss Earhart, let me be painfully clear, {11786}{11841}I give the orders and you take them. {11843}{11893}And if you do as you're told, you'll be a star. {11895}{11984}And I will be nearby, a small particle of dust {11986}{12025}in your constellation. {12027}{12075}Spoken like a gentleman. {12078}{12102}Miss Earhart. {12105}{12137}Mr. Putnam. {12177}{12255}Of course,|a gentleman would've paid for my ticket. {13018}{13053}What the hell are they? {13056}{13082}Oryx! {13162}{13208}Look how free they are! {13244}{13319}No constraints, no schedules to keep. {13347}{13395}For a gal who don't like schedules, {13398}{13496}you sure got yourself hooked up|with the wrong fella in Mr. Putnam. {13716}{13801}Boys, I'd like to introduce|your commander, Miss Amelia Earhart. {13822}{13865}Say hello to Slim Gordon, your navigator. {13867}{13901}How do you do? {13903}{13945}And Bill Stultz, {13947}{13997}- the best pilot working today.|- Hello, Bill. {13999}{14055}How much fuel do you lose|because of these? {14058}{14100}Costs us at least 400 gallons. {14131}{14160}Well, then why have them? {14172}{14262}The owner wants to protect her|plane in case you have to ditch it at sea. {14265}{14359}But those are decisions I have to make,|not somebody else. {14362}{14401}They're not making this trip, we are. {14403}{14500}But she owns the plane,|and this is still America, Miss Earhart. {14502}{14553}Ownership is the trump card. {14582}{14638}Sad to say, but dollars put planes in the air. {14641}{14746}I wonder if it can keep us up there,|not that I've ever had enough to try. {14748}{14837}Our job is to figure out|how to fly this beauty without gasoline. {14840}{14881}Include the whole engine up here. {14883}{14933}The name is Amelia Earhart. {15154}{15186}Careful up there, Slim. {15328}{15375}They're leaving for Newfoundland. {15378}{15453}Yes, they'll be taking off|for there tomorrow, weather permitting. {15456}{15523}Make sure the reporters are there.|Goodbye. {15655}{15739}Popping-off letters.|For my dad, my mom, and my sis. {15799}{15841}You know, in case. {15900}{15956}I'm honored that you would|leave these with me. {15958}{16030}Who else? If I do pop off, it's your fault. {16070}{16106}Pray I make it. {16114}{16159}Not much of a prayer man. {16162}{16237}Then at least tip your hat|and cross your fingers. {16441}{16470}Well, {16503}{16541}- see you.|- See you. {16902}{16962}{y:i}It's a short hop|from Boston to Newfoundland {16964}{17009}{y:i}for Amelia Earhart and crew: {17011}{17097}{y:i}Then on to Ireland,|and possibly the record books: {17099}{17184}{y:i}Earhart and top-notch ace|Bill Stultz have to get airborne, {17186}{17280}{y:i}quite a feat once their plane is fully|loaded for the Atlantic crossing: {18053}{18137}Seems like we got a situation here,|a real problem. {18147}{18220}When you figure it out,|Commander, let us know. {18726}{18802}I don't even know|what the hell I'm saying anymore. {18805}{18901}Here's to Little Miss Earhart,|who couldn't lift a pigeon off the ground! {19802}{19829}What time is it? {19832}{19861}It's time to fly. {19870}{19929}Get up, get dressed, we're going now. {19931}{19981}Where's the weather report? {20046}{20070}It's not good enough. {20073}{20096}Great. {20099}{20176}Either we fly to Ireland|or you're going home today. {20178}{20209}Well, it's not good enough. {20211}{20269}It's fine. There's a tailwind all the way. {20271}{20329}We'll off-load to 700 gallons,|which gets us off the water {20331}{20357}and the wind will get us to Ireland. {20359}{20411}You're dumping fuel? You're serious? {20414}{20460}Just as serious as you're hung-over. {20485}{20567}Slim, you go now. Get the late weather.|We'll meet you at the plane. {20655}{20716}Slim, go. I've got this. {21142}{21211}I've loved one person unconditionally, Bill. {21230}{21291}He's the most caring and generous {21294}{21371}and charming|and flat-out funny guy I'll ever know. {21384}{21420}He's my father. {21440}{21535}He's a drunk,|and he's let me down all my life. {21581}{21693}Now you get out of that goddamn bed,|and you fly that plane to Ireland, {21695}{21749}or I swear to you, I will. {21848}{21901}Good. Slim, start the engines. {22009}{22105}This report indicates some degree of risk.|It's a risk I'm taking. {22207}{22248}Have a nice flight. {22332}{22410}Read tomorrow's papers, Bill!|We'll both be in them. {22790}{22877}So, to take off,|you pull back on the thing, right? {22926}{22968}Go get 'em, Amelia! {23646}{23684}Start the clock! {24362}{24406}Let's hope this works! {24765}{24789}We're up. {24835}{24889}We're up. We're up! {24921}{24975}- Good work!|- Well done, Commander! {25286}{25344}{y:i}The fog comes on little cat feet: {25395}{25502}{y:i}It sits, looking over harbor and city,|on silent haunches {25533}{25573}{y:i}and then moves on: {25602}{25630}{y:i}Listen: {25659}{25715}{y:i}The motors are humming sweetly: {25743}{25791}{y:i}And I feel at home: {25937}{25966}You okay? {25979}{26041}Be better off if the damn radio would|join the party! {26178}{26205}Mr. Putnam! There's a call coming in. {26240}{26263}Putnam. {26266}{26356}{y:i}I'm afraid we've lost contact|with Miss Earhart's plane, sir: {26373}{26431}Keep me informed. Thank you. {26663}{26725}We've been flying for 19 hours plus. {26728}{26767}How far to land? {26787}{26811}Radio is still out. {26814}{26880}There's no way to compute wind speed|and drift in the clouds, {26882}{26930}so God only knows where Ireland is. {26933}{27013}There may b...
