you have been indicted.

No interview was requested...

and this isn't a meeting.

Anyway, i want to call

your attention to our concern.

Some lobbies want to end our

control over civii aviation.

I don't follow you.

No, just a second, please.

What i mean is...

we're a bit worried...

with the course

of the investigation.

You should be worried.

- Ok, i forgive you.

- Thank you.

Hi, anything to drink?

No, thanks.

Have you seen the waterfalls?

- How are things?

- Fine, not many people.

This blond girl in the aisle,

bring her in.

Come on, gordo,

stop messing around.

- Hi... excuse me...

- how are you?

Hi, what's up?

Cool! So many instruments!

Yes, have you seen this?

D'you remember them all?

We study all the manuals.

What's that?

Afinger.

Hey, gordo. Don't you feel

the pedals vibrating?

I'm serious... check it out.

Yes, i can feel it.

Is everything ok?

Yes, go back to your seat.

We'll be landing shortly.

Fine, thank you.

You might end up

floating in the river

i'm sending you this

from maintenance. Recognize it?

Did you feel the vibrations?

They sent you out with a crack

on the tail fin.

This could have killed you.

Things are worse than you think.

File a report:
The repair's listed

in the maintenance log.

The owner hires air force staff

as pilots.

When there're problems,

they cover for each other.

Get it?

Guess what they called

the latest plane.

Anillaco.

It's crazy, we're going to crash

and nobody gives a damn!

- What are you doing about it?

- Nothing.

Well, i wrote some reports.

Boss, with all due respect,

this is a serious issue.

Yes, i know, i know.

- We could have been killed.

- You're right, absolutely.

But this guy is still out there

certifying planes.

Let me give you some advice.

Don't argue with maintenance.

They'll win in the long run.

- You know they hate pilots.

- This guy nearly killed us.

- Let me talk to them.

- Fine, but...

take it easy,

i'll handle it.

I'll handle it.

- Are your vacations up to date?

- Yes.

- Sure?

- Yes.

Why do you think pilots

are given days off?

Safety reasons, a tired pilot

is a safety hazard.

- Recognize this?

- Yes... that's my file.

- Is this your signature?

- Yes.

- Do you know you're under oath?

- Yes.

Are you aware that perjury

is a crime?

According to this, you are

owed six years' vacation.

What am i doing here?

- Who knows?

- Tell me about you.

- What?

- I don't know, anything.

The usual story...

- my father left us...

- oh, no! How old were you?

Thirty-two.

You shouldn't joke about

those things.

It's true. He got divorced

and disappeared.

Thank you.

Real food.

Want to come up?

No, no. I don't want to,

i don't want to.

- I don't want to.

- What do you mean?

I just can't.

I'm sorry... i just can't.

Don't laugh.

Do you know what it takes

to get a woman this far?

I feel like it,

but i don't want to.

It's too complicated for a man

to understand.

I understand everything.

- Satisfied with your work?

- What do you mean?

- Are you tired?

- Yes, i woke up at 6 to get here.

I can imagine.

- When was your last holiday?

- A long time ago. Too long.

They won't let me go.

That's not legal.

- Are you nervous?

- No.

Do you get depressed?

Or feel like crying?

No.

My question makes you laugh.

Are you amused by depression?

No.

- Does it scare you?

- No.

The tests.

You're going to draw here.

And answer some questions.

On another shee you're going to draw

a man, a woman, and a house.

My colleague will test you, too.

- Why do i have to do this?

- Because i need you to.

I've been flying for 17 years,

and i've never done this.

Things change in 17 years.

We need an assessment.

The sooner you finish,

the sooner you can go.

To your success.

- To yours.

- To theirs.

- Everything will work out fine.

- Cheers!

- Any news?

- Several.

I called you at operations,

but you'd already left.

The horizons and gyro

are all inoperative.

- What does the mel say?

- The mel states:

"No night fl ying

without standby horizon."

- Hi.

- How are you?

This plane is inoperative

for night flight.

We've been flying like this

for a week.

Not my problem.

We can take it to a hangar

and cover it up.

Whatever. Fix it

or give me another one.

- I can't fly like this.

- No planes.

The golf foxtrot is grounded

in salta.

Well, then i'm very sorry.

Tell operations we're no-go.

The technical log, please.

Operations, one-six-zero.

Go ahead.

Two horizons and a gyro out

of order. We are no-go.

Ok, roger. They're not departing

2 horizons...

and a gyro out of order.

He's such a pain in the ass!

Any other pilots around?

Stop loading,

...we are not flying with this plane.

- Why not?

Two horizons

are out of order.

Is that serious?

Julia, once you're done with catering

come to operations.

I'll see you in operations.

Are they crazy?

Two horizons don't work.

- Are they flying like this?

- They're crazy.

What the hell are you doing?

Rules are one thing, reality another.

That's how we fly here.

Yes, the place sucks,

and the planes are crap.

This is madness!

What if the only functioning

horizon fails?

It won't faii tonight.

Hi, this is perez.

You have my support.

What happened today was a disgrace.

That's all...

see you, man.

Captain, operations calling.

You're grounded for

the rest of the month.

Who gave the order?

Ok, thanks.

Lapa chief pilot.

I insist on the very serious reports

i handed you.

With the current state

of maintenance,

a lapa aircraft will most likely

be involved in an accident.

This is not only predictable

but also almost inevitable.

Hello. This is gonzalo.

I'd like to meet you

today at noon.

Well... i'd like to talk to you.

Did you know i was suspended?

I know. I didn't want it

to end up like this.

I know how the plane was.

I owed them for the simulator

what kind of a favour is it?

Cash, man. It makes a

big difference.

In your financial situation

i'd also follow the rules.

- I've no choice.

- Now they got you.

One day it'll be over.

We'll fly like a normal company.

Did you file a report?

- What did you write?

- The truth.

- Are you submitting it?

- I don't know, why?

And if you do?

- What do you think will happen?

- You know best.

You tell me.

In a normal company, they'd fi re

me, here they'll fire you.

In a normal company we wouldn't

be discussing this.

In a normal country, we wouldn't

be discussing this.

- Hello.

- Hello.

- I've got some letters.

- For whom?

For adrian.

With copies to everyone.

The owner, managers,

general director.

- They've stolen my computer.

- What?

Have you got a back-up?

Are you ok?

I'll check my house.

Call you later.

- I'm home.

- I can see that.

We called this informal meeting

in order to talk.

Only after we threatened

with mass resignation to the union.

If we cool down, we might

be able to talk.

What should cool down are the union

attacks on the company.

What attacks?
