...and your calculations
were just one percent out...

:34:08
...you could pass the Eiffel Tower
in daylight and never see it.

:34:12
Look where Marada is.
There's absolutely n-n-noth-

:34:15
- Nothing.
Nothing. Nothing. Nothing.

:34:18
If you miss this glorious
little bunch of trees...

:34:21
...there's n-nothing between you
and the coast, and that's 500 miles.

:34:26
Well, nobody's suggesting
that it was easy, Mr. Moran.

:34:32
Tell me this, captain,
are you right-handed?

:34:36
- Yes, as a matter of fact.
That means your right leg...

:34:39
...is more developed than the other
and takes a longer step.

:34:42
If you have an unreliable compass,
you just go around...

:34:45
...in a left-handed circle
and there's nothing you can do about it.

:34:49
You're right, Mr. Towns, but you're
talking about right-handed civilians.

:34:54
In an officer's training corps...
:34:56
...we military men are taught to march
with absolute precisiĆ³n.

:35:00
I'd even send Sergeant Watson
here on ahead.

:35:03
As it happens, he's left-handed.
:35:07
Now, if you'll excuse me.
Come along, sergeant.

:35:15
There's nothing you can do, Frank.
:35:17
He goes by the book.
And you can't re-write it for him.

:35:20
No.
:35:22
Gentlemen.
:35:27
I've been examining this aeroplane.
:35:29
- You have?
- Yes. We have everything here...

:35:31
...that we need to build a new one
and fly it out.

:35:35
If you'd have a look
at my calculations.

:35:37
- Don't know if you can read my writing.
- Are you trying to be funny?

:35:43
- What did you say?
- I said, are you trying to be funny?

:35:50
That is precisely the reaction
I'd expect from a man...

:35:53
...of your obvious limitations.
