- Dennis McGubgub: [piloting Cessna Skywagon] I'm going to have to put down and wait out this storm.
- Russ Jordan: [holding gun on Dennis] You just keep flyin'.
- Dennis McGubgub: Look! Kid! The Lacloche Mountains are down there to the right. I can't go over 'em. This stuff is solid up to 5,000 feet. I'm going to have to set 'er down or slam into one of those peaks.
- Russ Jordan: You think I'm pretty stupid, don't you? I know you guys; you fly in any kind of weather. You'll make it.
- Dennis McGubgub: You've been watching too many movies. Why don't you sit down and fasten your seatbelt, uh?
- Russ Jordan: [looking over beached seaplane] Huh! That's a bad bang on the float.
- Billy Williams: Think it's serious?
- Russ Jordan: [pensive] Have you got a knife?
- Billy Williams: Yeah, a hunting knife. Why?
- Russ Jordan: Alright, look. Go into the woods and scrape up all the pine pitch you can find. We're gonna fix this thing.
- Billy Williams: Hey! How come you know so much?
