to Hawaii, to Los Angeles...

...to New York.

F***.

- Power coming up.

- Power coming up.

Howard Hughes has just alerted us.

He has asked everyone to hold on.

Tremendous horsepower kicking up.

Let me hear it, Odie.

Twenty-five miles per hour.

Thirty.

Here we go. Here we go.

- Thirty-five.

- The air-speed indicator...

... has moved up to 25. Thirty.

- Thirty-five.

- Forty.

As he pushes the throttle it's 40.

- Forty-five.

- Forty-five. More throttle.

- Forty-five.

- Fifty.

- It's 50 over a choppy sea.

- Fifty-five.

It's 55. It's 55.

- Sixty.

- More throttle. It's 60.

- Sixty-five.

- Sixty-five.

- Seventy.

- It's 70.

- Seventy-five.

- It's 75.

And something momentarily cuts out.

I believe we are airborne.

We are airborne, ladies and gentlemen.

I don't believe that Hughes...

... meant this to be. I don't know.

And we were really up in the air.

We were really up in the air.

Ladies and gentlemen,

the Hughes mammoth aircraft...

... has flown this afternoon

in Los Angeles Harbor.

Well, it certainly looks at this moment

that Howard Hughes will be around...

... the United States for quite

some time to come.

We must understand that technologies

like these are the way of the future.

- That's enough questions.

- TWA and Hughes Aircraft are delighted...

...to have you come here

and witness this wonderful sight.

- Excuse us for just a second.

- All right.

- So you feel like going to Paris?

- Now?

TWA is starting up flights to Europe.

I thought I might pilot the first one.

Ought to be some fun.

- Lots of shopping in Paris.

- I'll buy you anything.

You can buy me dinner. How about that?

Dinner, then. We got a date?

Okay, baby, you got a date.

I'll be back in a second,

but don't you go anywhere, now. I mean it.

All right, listen, boys.

Something new. Jet airplanes.

- You know about jets?

- No, but it sounds expensive.

Oh, it will be, but we gotta get started.

Come on, walk with me.

Whoever can start utilizing

jet technology...

...on commercial airliners is gonna win.

What do you know about the science?

I know a little. I can work something

to show you. Basic turbine stuff.

Noah, who are those fellas?

Do they work for me?

Everybody works for you, Howard.

Lockheed worked on the F-80. Let's get

Bob Gross and see if he can help us out.

- What, now?

- Of course now.

We gotta get into it.

Jets are the way of the future.

- It's 4:
30.

- I talked to Bob last week. He's in New York.

- So it's 7:
30.

- He won't be in the office.

We'll figure out what hotel he's at.

Do you want a call...

...or you want some kind of meeting?

- We want a meeting, don't we?

Do you want me bring him

out here tomorrow, then, Howard?

- The way of the future.

- Howard?

- Howard?

- The way of the future.

- The way of the future.

- Let's take a walk, Howard.

- Way of the future.

- Give me a hand.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

All right, stay here. I'll be right back.

You understand, Howard?

The way of the future.

Guard the door. I'll get a doctor.

No one sees him like this.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

You are not safe.

When I grow up...

... I'm gonna fly the fastest planes

ever built...

... make the biggest movies ever...

... and be the richest man in the world.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.

The way of the future.
