imagine the passengers' faces...

knowing that we need

god's help to fly.

We could pray the rosary

before take-off.

Or three our father

to save fuel.

- Luigi, i'm going with you.

- Fine, let's go.

- Bye, gordo.

- Bye, guys.

We're going to simulator

training to rio.

Why to rio?

We don't have simulators here.

Why?

Stop drinking!

No, we go every six months.

You snore very loud.

- You'll snore when you grow up.

- No, i won't.

Why did you get divorced?

Because...

she was mean, and she hit me.

Come on, why?

Because 95/o of all marriages

don't work out.

- Mom and dad worked out.

- They must be in that 5/o.

Who broke up, she or you?

- She did.

- Why?

I'm not sure.

I think she doesn't like pilots.

As soon as i know something

i'll call you, ok?

Are you sad?

Dad says to lock the door...

and take the keys.

We can't be flying like this. Have

you read the operations bulletin?

Of course.

Don't be dumb.

Just do your job.

Shut up and

be more diplomatic.

Don't be a fool.

Before you start fighting,

consider what's at stake.

Very well, apologies accepted.

Make sure it doesn't happen again.

Commodore...

with all due respect,

worse things are happening.

What do you mean?

Mendoza had a total

electrical failure.

What if i needed to make

an emergency landing?

What do you expect?

We're in argentina.

"More than becoming a pilot,

i wanted to marry you.

Nothing, absolutely nothing,

could beat the feeling,

of that november 28, 1969.

You turned to me, so naturally,

and trapped my mind and senses

with this question:"

Which book do you use?

"Your words had the greatest

impact on me.

I didn't quiver, no,

my whole body was shaking.

I couldn't believe my ears.

You were talking to me.

If i had to choose among

the best moments of my life,

this would be one of them.

When fantasy meets reality,

it's normally disappointing.

But sometimes fantasy is

contained in a wish so strong...

that reality becomes fantastic.

That night, reality and fantasy

seemed to meld.

I decided we would live

in patagonia,

by a lake at the foot

of mount tronador.

Just you and me. Nothing would

get in the way of our happiness.

Despite my father's opposition,

whose parents had died

in a plane crash,

i had already decided

i'd become a pilot."

Let's go, let's go.

Let's go, 3, 1, 4, 2.

Let's go.

- Do i turn this off?

- Yes.

6, 2, 8, 8. 52.

- Sure you don't need help?

- I'm sure. Thank you.

What is it?

- Engine one failed.

- Restart it!

Restart it!

Dead, no reaction.

Sorry, i couldn't freeze it

on time.

Why was the only working

engine burned?

You didn't reduce thrust!

You must set maximum continuous
