Planes Page #7

Synopsis: Dusty Crophopper is a little cropduster plane with a fear of heights and a crazy dream of being a racer. While his friends need convincing, Dusty gets the training he needs from Skipper, a veteran fighter, and qualifies for the Wings Across the World race. In the event, Dusty finds competitors who soon learn that there is something special about this underdog as he is tested to his physical and emotional limits. In doing so, Dusty soon finds enemies, and more importantly friends, who are inspired by his dream. In the face of all obstacles, the winner of this air race will be anyone's guess.

DUSTY:
Uh, he's pretty high up.

SKIPPER:
You're not racing him,

you're racing his shadow.

Beat it to the water tower.

Let's do this! Thread the silos!

Tighter! Lean into your turns more.

- His turns are terrible.

- Yeah.

SKIPPER:
Let's go, Dusty. Faster.

You're falling behind.

Begin your climb

and catch him in the dive.

Start your dive now.

Never mind, you already lost.

(GROANS)

So, we can increase power

or we can decrease drag.

(GASPS)

Definitely increase power.

- (BEEPS)

- (MACHINE WHIRRING)

More torque means more speed.

Lousy.

Come on, let's work that radial-G turn.

Do it again. One more time. Again!

Come on! Push it, Dusty!

Better!

Remember now, altitude for airspeed.

Gravity is your ally.

The laws of physics govern speed.

All right, Dusty.

Give this run all you've got.

Use your radial-G.

Let gravity work for you.

Looking good.

That's what I'm talking about.

Firewall the throttle! Go! Go! Go!

You got it, Duster!

(MOOING)

SKIPPER:
Begin your climb!

All right, altitude for airspeed.

Catch him in the dive!

Dive now!

- Ballistic!

- (WHOOPING)

(LAUGHING)

SPARKY:
He kicked

Aston Martins out there!

- CHUG:
Dusterino!

- He's ready.

DUSTY:
Whoa!

CHUG:
Oh, that's cool.

The piston and cross-wrenches.

Your squadron insignia.

- You've earned it.

- CHUG:
It fits you.

- It fits you, Dusty. (SNIFFLES)

- SKIPPER:
Now, listen.

When the race starts and

all those planes take off,

it'll stir up a bunch of swirlies

just like the Wrenches ran into

in the Battle of Airway.

Roger that. Sure wish

you were coming with me, Skip.

Just radio back when

you get to the check points.

I'll be your wingman from here.

Volo Pro Veritas, right?

Volo Pro Veritas.

- Kick some tail, buddy.

- We're all proud of you.

Whoo-hoo! Dustmeister!

(HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYING)

Wow.

TOWER CONTROLLER:

Break, break.

Air racer number 7, Air racer number 7.

Do you read? Kennedy approach, over.

(STAMMERS)

I'm Dusty Crophopper,

I'm looking for JFK airport.

Crophopper 7, you are supposed

to be on the Carnice visual.

Turn further left, heading 1-9-5.

Maintain 1,000 feet.

Intercept the 22 right localizer.

You are cleared for

the ILS 22, right approach.

- Roger.

- Heavy is sectored in behind you.

Run that by me one more time.

Turn further left,

heading 1-9-5. Maintain 1,000...

DUSTY:
Never mind. I got it.

Do you see him?

Well, radar does, but I don't see diddly.

Check out this pavement!

Nice! It's so smooth.

Crophopper 7, you passed Foxtrot.

Turn left onto Charlie.

Hold short at 22.

Wait, I thought...

- Get off the runway!

- Whoa!

- (HORNS HONKING)

- (GASPS)

- Oh. Sorry.

- Go back to Jersey, you bum.

Excuse me, where can I...
