- Do you really need that? | - It's a little flash.
Makes me look younger.
I gotta keep up with these jetjockeys.
Before God, there's a lot of good men | going down in this stinkin' war.
- Did anybody tell you it's a stinkin' war? | - Nobody but everybody.
No guts.
It's a war you can't feel. There's nothing | simple about it like the last one.
Except dying - that's always simple.
Sometimes I forget what this one's all about.
- More? | - No, no, not for me, thanks.
They tell you how crummy | these Chinese MiG pilots are?
Oh, yeah. We got statistics. | They lose thirteen to our one.
Sure. 13 to one.
But what they don't tell you is that | when one of 'em is good, he's too good.
Casey Jones, for instance. | You've heard of him, haven't you?
- You're kiddin'? | - I'm not kiddin'.
A Chinese pilot named Casey Jones.
He has a plane with the numbers 7-11 | on the fuselage.
Don't ask me why. | Maybe he's a crapshooter. Look.
The MiGs are based in Red China, | across the Yalu river.
We've got orders never to cross the Yalu, but | they're free to play fast and loose on our side.
- Still? | - Still.
They come off of their airfield swung out | in a line. Bandit trains, they call 'em.
Now, if GCl reports a bandit train taking off | from Antung with Casey Jones at the throttle,
one of our air groups | can count on losing two pilots that day.
I lost seven good men to that China boy.
Seven good men | and a couple of aces thrown in.
Old Case hasn't been around lately, | but he'll be back. We can count on it.
So never underestimate the MiG pilot.
You're liable to run into a live one.
Well, you make it sound interesting.
I thought it would be. Would you care | to wring out an 86 in the morning?
If you think it's necessary.
Not for me, but I guess you haven't | been up in a couple of weeks.
Don't walk lightly with me.
If you want to see what I can do with an 86, | I'll be glad to show you.
No offence. Routine.
Sure.
- Glad to have you with us, Cleaver. | - Dutch...
Good night.
- Major Saville? | - I'm Saville.
I'm supposed to fly with you this morning.
- I know. | - My name's Corona, like the cigar.
- Glad to know you, Lieutenant. | - Yes, sir.
- Our call is "Cobra", right? | - Right.
You'll fly that one over there, sir, 140.
Well, shall we get on with it?
- You had much time in an F-86? | - Enough, I think.
You're gonna need it all. I'm talkin' out of turn, | but there'll be a surprise for you up there.
Oh? What's that?
Colonel Moncavage took off five minutes ago.
He'll bounce you for simulated combat.
- Dutch's orders? | - Who else? He gets his kicks with surprises.
Thanks for tellin' me.
I'm a friend to man.
K-13, this is Cobra. | Ready to roll with two.
