Straight F's, First Class — The Emergency Landing transcript
Straight F's, First Class
A student written off as the lowest-ranked in school hides an extraordinary secret: a rare gift for flying. As the pressure of ordinary life mounts, the double life of a gifted pilot and a struggling student threatens to collide.
English
Oh, my God. We're alive. We made it out. Notify Colonel William right now.
We found the pilot protégé he's been looking for. Yes, sir. Tower, clear me an alternate runway. I'm bringing her in for an emergency landing.
An emergency landing? You'd need exceptional skill. And exact knowledge of the aircraft's condition. Are you sure you can bring it down safely?
Altitude, 31,500 feet. Airspeed, 360 knots. Fuel, 29,500 pounds. I can land it. Give me a runway. Emergency landing approved. Secure the nearest alternate runway. Clear the approach, halt all departures, and get emergency crews in position. Colonel, Commander Owen just sent over the file on a candidate for the Air Force's aviation program. This is ridiculous. I asked for someone with what it takes to fly fighters.
Why are you wasting my time with a high school kid?
