Synopsis
Commercial airline pilot Whip Whitaker has a problem with drugs and alcohol, though so far he's managed to complete his flights safely. His luck runs out when a disastrous mechanical malfunction sends his plane hurtling toward the ground. Whip pulls off a miraculous crash-landing that results in only six lives lost. Shaken to the core, Whip vows to get sober -- but when the crash investigation exposes his addiction, he finds himself in an even worse situation.

Memorable quotes from Flight
"Samurai fool! Your efforts are in vain again! This gateway to the past is once more beyond your-Ey? You can fly?!"
"* Bryan Andrews and Brian Larsen, "Jack Learns to Jump Good", Samurai Jack, (March 1, 2002)"
"Of course the vary a good deal. John’s, for instance, had a lagoon with flamingoes flying over it at which John was shooting, while Michael, who was very small, had a flamingo with lagoons flying over it."
"Vainly the fowler's eye Might mark thy distant flight to do thee wrong,As, darkly painted on the crimson sky, Thy figure floats along."
"Thou little bird, thou dweller by the sea,Why takest thou its melancholy voice,And with that boding cryAlong the waves dost thou fly?"
"Flying is years and years of utter boredom punctuated by moments of sheer terror"
"Ours is the commencement of a flying age, and I am happy to have popped into existence at a period so interesting."
"Lest I make the people fly off from that city like a wild dove from its tree, lest I make them fly around like a bird over its well-founded nest."
