“Firefox”

Maj. Gant steals the MiG-31 and runs a gauntlet of Soviet attempts to shoot him down.

But I swear, when he goes supersonic on the deck to avoid radar & the MiG is stripping the snow off of trees, this is the only time I ever saw Clint Eastwood smile.

“Let’s see what this thing can do.”
“Boy, is this a machine!”

Equaled only by Dirty Harry’s disgust: “Nobody, I mean NOBODY, puts catchup on a hot dog!”

A GREAT MOVIE...and a good book. Movie was better than the book. IIRC, it is based on a real story.
