:13:01
Yes, sir. All we really needed
was a place like this.

:13:05
Well, of course, there is a catch.
It's right over there.

:13:09
These 300 acres are all that's left
of what used to be thousands.

:13:14
In the '30s, the government set this
aside as a wild bird refuge.

:13:18
But with fewer birds wintering here,
it's been encroached on.

:13:22
Some people have made a lot of money.
:13:24
If no wild birds show up
by November 1st...

:13:27
...these chaps are
just itching to take over.

:13:30
November 1st? Really?
:13:33
So if we're here by then, it's ours?
:13:35
No, not actually yours.
:13:37
- The birds'.
- Right.

:13:40
It's perfect!
:13:44
I sure hope you're right. I don't
want to find out I'm in trouble...

:13:49
This spot that we found, it's perfect!
It's just perfect.

:13:53
- But we don't have that long.
- Can you land there?

:13:56
- Perfectly.
- Okay.

:13:57
Good, flat surface right near.
:13:59
- Stop moving back. I'm pushing.
- I felt that.

:14:03
Squeeze it down a little bit.
:14:05
Not so it hurts.
Well, it'll move back and forth.

:14:09
Let's see how it looks.
Get your finger out of your nose.

:14:16
Nice move, Tom. Very good.
:14:19
The journey will take
four days of good weather.

:14:22
Thirty nautical miles
to Lake Ontario.

:14:24
Then 30 more across the lake
to the U.S. of A.

:14:27
Now 65 miles further on
is rendezvous number one...

:14:30
... at a farm outside
Franklinville, NY.

:14:33
Day two, we're going to Pennsylvania.
:14:35
Across the Appalachian Mountains,
120 miles to rendezvous number two.

:14:40
On day three, we fly over Maryland,
east of Baltimore.

:14:43
Then south across the Potomac
to the lowlands of Virginia.

:14:46
On day four, we go along Chesapeake
Bay to the town of New Hope.

:14:50
From there, it's just
10 miles to Valhalla.

:14:53
- How are they doing?
- They're panting hard after 20 miles.

:14:57
I really don't think
they can go 150 miles a day.
