Planes: Fire & Rescue

Look at them go! Into the final lap.

And here comes number seven...

Dusty Crophopp?!

And Dusty wins the gold!

Go, Duster!

Dusty, you were just

a small-town crop duster

who overcame impossible odds

to win the Wings Around

the Globe Rally.

And now, you're an air racing legend.

Well, Brent' I've had an amazing team

supporting me every step of the way.

The best coach, the best mechanic...

and the best fuel truck

that anyone could ask for.

Hey, wait a minute.

You're a gas consultant.

That's correct. I've got gas.

Awesome pic, Dust,

except your eyes are closed.

Racing with your eyes closed,

huh? So, that's your secret.

Yeah, you figured it out, Chug.

That was

some pretty fancy flying, Dusty.

Saw it all on my radio with pictures.

You mean your TV.

No, no. That's clearing up.

My bumper was nearly

corroded right through.

- All right.

- Disgusting looking.

Yeah, it was all rusty and blistered.

I got it. Anyway, what else is going on?

Dottie gave me some of that Rust-eze

Medicated Bumper Ointment.

- Hows it look now'?

- Looks great. Fine.

- Take a closer look.

- That's close enough.

What was that?

Didn't need to see that.

HEY, hey, guys, guys. Listen to this.

"After his Red Bulldozer win,

Dusty Crophopper..."

- That's you.

-"...returns to Propwash Junction..."

- That's here.

-"...where he will be performing

"at their annual Corn Festival."

They mentioned the Corn Festival?

It's national news!

Seriously? That's great.

Yeah. The phone's been

ringing off the hook here at the motel.

Gonna have to get out

the inflatable hangars.

Yeah, everybody

wants to see you, Dusty.

It's gonna be the biggest Corn Fest yet.

Dust'!-

- Ready to do some flying?

Absolutely, Skipper.

- Don't stay out too late.

- Later, Dust.

Remember to open your eyes.

Hey, Propwash Tower,

this is Crophopper Seven.

Flight of two, ready for takeoff

Crophopper Seven, Propwash Tower.

Wind's calm. Runway

two-seven clear for takeoff

Have a great ?ight, fellas.

Crophopper Seven ?ight, on the (oil.

Snap into those turns.

Tighten ii up.

There you go.

Now let's work that vertical!

Dusty!

- Dusty, are you okay?

"My engine.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,

steady, there.

Propwash Tower,

this is Jolly Wrench Seven.

We're a flight of two,

five miles north of the airport...

inbound for a precautionary landing.

Roger. Proceed direct to the numbers.

Wind two-seven zero at five.

Runway two-seven clear to land.

I don't know what it was.

I wasn't doing anything different.

Pylon turns, a vertical,

like we do every day.

I feel great now' but...

I got a love-hate relationship

with you, Dusty.

Love that you're my best customer,

hate what you're doing to yourself.

Come on, Dot. You saw me

at the Red Bulldozer race.

I kicked Aston Martin out there!

You're not even listening

to what I'm saying.

And hey, Speed City Airfest

is just a few weeks away.

And I think, if I get a little more speed

coming out of my turns,

really work that radial-G,

I can definitely improve my lime.

Yeah, I'm feeling it.

I'm feeling good about my next race.

Well, no damage to the casing

or compressor blades.

See? I told you. Just a hiccup.

- But there is...

- Dusty! Dusty!

What happened? Are you okay, Dust?

It's okay.

Was it your fuel'?

I tested it this morning.

I always take a little sip. Gets me going.

It's okay. I got quite a little scare there.

- But Dottie here...

- Dusty!

And it's all good news,

gave me the all-clear.

Your reduction gearbox is failing.

My gearbox?

Your chip detector had a cluster

of steel shavings on it.

Flakes from the gears.

That's what caused the trouble.

Well, you could just replace it.

Order a new one from A-G Parts.

It'll be here by the end of the week.

Right?

What?

Your gearbox... It's...

It's out of production.

Long since discontinued.

Can't even remember

the last time I saw one.

But, Dottie...

Come on, can't you just

build Dust a new one?

No. It's too complex. It has to be factory.

Well, I mean, there has...

From now on,

you have to back off the torque.

Keep it under 80 percent.

What? 80 percent?

Dottie, you've got me

cranked up to 140.

I need that to race.

If you push yourself into the red,

-your gearbox will fail.

- No, Dottie!

And then your engine will seize.

- Maybe the test that you did was wrong!

- Dusty, listen!

But I've got a race coming up!

You'll crash!

You push yourself into the red,

you'll crash.

Look, I'm gonna install

a warning light on your panel.

A warning light?

If it comes on, you'll need to pull power.

Slow down.

But, Dottie...

You're saying...

I can't race anymore.

I'm so sorry.

I was making my descent

To the Old "BNA"

At gate number three

Concourse A

Can you believe it?

She left me for a hybrid.

I didn't even hear him coming.

And there I saw

a wide-body jet

Make me pitch and yaw

My runway romance

At gate number three

All right, boys, I got three Crudeweisers,

and who ordered the Spruce Goose?

What? It's tangy.

Hey, sugar rims,

you just fall out of a B-17?

'Cause you're da bomb.

Pickup trucks.

Dame's an excellent mechanic.

You know as well as I,

she wouldn't have said

what she said unless she was sure.

- Hey, Dusty! Dusty!

- Hey, Dusty!

- Dusty, hey!

- There he is.

Dust, listen, we just got off the radio

with Ethan up in Grand Flaps.

Old "Grand Flaps Ethan."

He's got the gearbox?

No.

But his buddy owns

-21 service hangars.

-21!

Twenty-one of them,

and he's gonna check his inventory,

and he's gonna put the word

out for you, Duster.

-It's a good start, right?

- Oh, yeah!

It's a great start! Can you believe it?

Because if that gearbox is out there,

we're gonna find it for you, buddy.

And, hey, if you don't, it's all right.

- Because the answer is "Yes."

"Yes?"

- What?

- Yes?

Huh?

Yes, of course you can

have your old job back.

Don't even have to bother asking.

That's just the kind of guy I am.

Lead bottom,

I'm sure Dusty appreciates your offer...

Of course, you got to

start back at minimum wage,

and you lost all your vacation time,

gotta go through orientation again.

Leadbottom, please!

Once you acquire

the taste for Vitaminamulch,

you can't live without it.

It's like Mama's jalape?o chili. Spicy.

Twice!

It's just that now is not the best time.

Come on, Skipper.

I can get his old sprayer back

from that Germany place.

Have it cleaned up and bolted

back on him in no time.

I'll tell you what,

let me buy you a can of oil.

I'll tell you what,

Dusty is the best duster

I've ever known.

And I'm telling you

that Dusty don't crop dust no more.

That's right' no more!

- He's a racer.

- A racer!

He's gonna be back

to racing in no time.

In no time!

- Right, Dusty?

- Right, Dust?

Dust?

Fire. Fire!

Somebody get some help!

The Fill 'n Fly!

- I'll go get Mayday.

- I'll hit the shut-off valve.

I'm on it!

Had to get my glasses.

Now, listen up!

We gotta cool this down

before it spreads.

Yeah!

Whoa!

- I got you.

-Thanks.

Now what?

I'm gonna need some help.

NOW, pull!

Pull!

"TMST"?

"This Means Serious Trouble."

"Transportation Management

Safety Team.

Mr. Mayday, were you

at the specified point of attack,

and applying an extinguishing agent

within three minutes

from the time of alarm?

Well, I...

I didn't have time to look at a clock.

Is that guy writing down

everything I say?

- Yes.

- Well, I...

- So he just wrote that down?

- Yes.

- And that?

- Yes.

Can you provide me

with your self-inspection records

and emergency procedure plans?

Look, now, we don't have

many emergencies around here.

Besides, we did get the fire out.

Is that your contingency plan,

Mr. Mayday?

Every time there's an incident,

you topple a water tower'?

This was my fault.

I clipped the tower.

I ?ew out last night because I...

Dust'!-

It was an accident.

It's clear this airport

has no plans for an emergency,

and equipment from last century.

So, unless Mr. Mayday

gets refurbished,

and acquires a second

fire-fighting vehicle

in accordance with CFR title 14,

volume three,

chapter one, section 139,

sub-paragraph B,

lam pulling this airport's

certificate of operation

for non-compliance of rescue

and fire-fighting regulations.

Chew-

Propwash Junction just got shut down?

With no active runway,

how can anybody land?

They can't. That's the problem.

There goes the Corn Festival.

But I already finished

my corncob costume.

Now, everybody, calm down.

- Calm down?

- Calm down.

Calm down? Motel's booked.

This Corn Festival

is what butters my corn.

Brodi, we've already figured this out.

Dottie, show them.

This is Mayday now.

I did the drawings.

We add a new 400-watt siren,

a 2,000 GPM roof turret,

a high-capacity water tank

with integrated class A foam cell,

and we'll have an all-new Mayday.

Get out! He gets rocket boosters?

That's right. Fuelled by good old

hydrazine and nitrogen tetroxide.

Of course, remember,

that stuff is highly explosive,

so you'll want to keep it away

from any open flames.

But he's a fire truck.

Exactly. Go on, Dome.

So, for Mayday to keep his job

and get Propwash reopened,

we just need to find a second firefighter.

What? At this time of year'?

It's fire season.

How much is another

firefighter gonna cost?

I'll tell you how much. Too much!

If we hire one, we might as well hire two.

For crying out loud.

Gee, this tarmac is getting awful hot.

Knock, knock.

Hey, Dusty-

I just...

I wish there was...

You know, I wish there was

something I could do.

There's nothing. H's all right.

I'm old, Dusty.

Looks like my firefighting days are over.

No.

Nov Mayday.

Look, there's still plenty

of firefight left in you.

Look at...

I mean, right here,

"Firefighter of the Year."

Okay. Your Bronze Star.

Old and tarnished.

Like me.

Is this you and an old crop duster?

This one' right here.

Oh, yeah.

Mendocino, 1956.

Oh, '55, '55.

Yeah, I was there. Yeah, I was there.

I got to witness

one of the very first aerial firefighters.

Nowadays known as a "SEAT."

A "SEAT"?

Yeah. A "Single Engine Air Tanker."

You see, instead of dusting crops,

you know, like you used to do,

they drop water.

- Wow.

- Yeah.

Mayday?

What if I became our second firefighter?

You?

Yeah. Dottie will fix you up,

and I'll get certified.

What about your racing?

Look. Right now, we need

to get Propwash reopened.

Me...

And you.

I don't know what to say.

Thanks, Dusty.

One, two, three, lil' jon-jon, and five.

Okay, that's it. That's the morning rush.

Highway's all clear, Duster.

Now, when you get

to Piston Peak Air Attack,

you're gonna ask for Blade Ranger.

Blade Ranger.

You got it. Yeah.

He's their Chief of Fire and Rescue.

He's an old friend of mine.

He can train and certify you.

Consider it done, Mayday.

And, Dusty, be careful.

I will.

Good luck, Dusty!

Take it easy out there!

You can do it, Dusty.

We're proud of you, pal!

Good luck!

Yeah, he was like,

"He's okay to go, dude."

I'm sorry.

I know you're busy,

but I am looking

You are there!

Copy that, jefe.

Sewing beautiful Vee-Six Valley

You must be the SEAT.

We heard you were coming.

Hey, guys, what's up?

I'm Dusty Crophopper.

Dusty Crophopper? Dusty Crophopper!

Go. go, go, go, go!

- The air racer?

- Hi.

Shut the hangar door!

I'm your biggest fan!

I have seen every single

one of your races on RSN.

Wow!

You're smaller than I thought,

but that's okay.

Thanks.

So, what is a world-famous

racing superstar doing here?

Well...

I'm here because

I'm between races right now,

so I'm helping out some friends...

- That's so sweei!

- Back home.

I'm Dipper.

That's what everyone calls me,

so you can, m.

- Okay, Mrs...

-"Miss."

- Miss.

- Miss, yeah.

- Dipper. Yep.

-Dipper. Yep.

It was great to meet you.

I'm looking for Blade Ranger.

He's out scouting for spot fires.

He should be back in a few.

Thanks.

The one the Lakota call Haokah

beats his drum

with the wind to make thunder.

With thunder comes lightning,

and with lightning comes fire,

OKEV-

Yeah, very nice.

Windlifter, stop scaring our guest.

I don't hear any drums.

Kfiawu.

All aircraft,

we've got a report of a wildfire.

Come on, boys, let's load up!

Patch, drop the needle!

It's an actual fire?

Yeah. It happens all the time.

You guys only hear about the big ones.

Fire is due to an unattended campfire.

Location, 10 clicks northwest,

heading two-niner-seven.

Slow rate of spread.

Ten acres with a northerly wind on it.

I gotta see this.

Thar she burns, fellas!

Whoa!

Ail right, mud droppers,

watch your altitude.

Too low, and you'll spread the embers.

Dipper, set up for a drop

and vee the head of the fire.
