:05:01
Well, you take the D out
and the... what have you got?

:05:07
Piston rods.
So you see, it'll never help you.

:05:10
It will satisfy my soul.
:05:12
That dame's crazy.
:05:23
You're not going to recommend me
for a waiver, are you?

:05:26
- That's right.
- The service can't lose a pilot like Tim.

:05:29
Can't you wait,
give him another Schneider?

:05:31
- I don't believe that would do any good.
- What do you know?

:05:34
I can count, read a watch
and a blood-pressure dial.

:05:37
- What's wrong with me?
- Pilot fatigue.

:05:39
As far as flying's concerned,
you're worn-out.

:05:41
Like the works of an old watch.
:05:43
What are you talking about?
I can fly as well as I ever could.

:05:46
Doug's right. There's no argument.
This tells the story.

:05:49
Here's a composite graph of Schneider
indices in the cases of pilot fatigue.

:05:53
This is the turning point.
Tense irritability, nervousness.

:05:57
You weren't in good shape when you
reported. I ran extra Schneiders on you.

:06:01
When Dr. Lee took over your group,
I told him to continue with the tests.

:06:04
Your Schneiders have been following
this curve.

:06:07
Last week, you were here.
Now you're here.

:06:11
In my book, that means
you're washed-up with flying.

:06:14
- For how long?
- Maybe months. Maybe forever.

:06:17
I can't get by without my flight pay.
I have a wife and kids to support.

:06:21
- You can't do that on peanuts.
- These things are never easy on anyone.

:06:24
I won't take any grounding from you.
:06:26
If the Navy doesn't want experienced
pilots, I know who does.

:06:29
If you're smart,
stay out of airplanes.

:06:31
Stick around a couple months.
See what happens.

:06:33
Why stick around
and get turned down again?

:06:39
That's nice going.
:06:41
I don't know how we ever got along
around here without you.

:06:56
Don't resign, Tim.
I can fit you into a good ground job.

:06:59
You know there's no such thing
as a good ground job.
