Out of the Clouds (1955)

James Robertson Justice: Captain Brent

Quotes 

• Nick Millbourne : What's the trouble, Captain?

  Captain Brent : I'm not happy about the port outer - she sounds a bit rough to me.

  Nick Millbourne : Instruments check all right?

  Captain Brent : Yes.

  Nick Millbourne : The instrument say she's okay, the chief mechanic says she's okay...?

  Captain Brent : Young man, let me tell you something. In the air, I am responsible for this aircraft and the lives of all on board her, and neither you nor anyone else - *including* the chairman of the corporation - is going to induce me to take her one inch off the ground until I am absolutely satisfied that she is in perfect order. Do I make myself clear?

  Nick Millbourne : You make yourself clear.

  Captain Brent : I'm right and you *know* I am. That's why I've flown more miles than anyone else on this airfield.

  Nick Millbourne : [through gritted teeth]  Of *course* you're right, Captain.
