Delaware Airstrip, this is Tango Whiskey
Sierra.

G'day, Delaware Airstrip.

Still in.

Thank you, Delaware.

Tango Whiskey Sierra.

G'day, Chris Manning. G'day, Peter
Morgan.

It's just a great trip down here.

Yeah.

You need a hand with this?

Nah, we'll be right.

Alright, it's all yours.

What's up?

You should see the Delawong River.

From the air, it looks like the Garden
of Eden, but when you get down there,

it's just slime of things, dead fish,
dead birds.

Disgusting.

Well, I guess someone must be doing
something about it.

Yeah, but I don't know who.

Got a piece of art or what?

200 bucks.

They saw you coming.

Hi,

guys. I heard you were here.

Got a coffee?

I'll just grab one and then we'll get
started, eh?

My name's Scotty Gibbs. I'm pretty new
at this myself, so if there's anything

that you guys don't understand that I'm
talking about or something that you want

to know, just stop me and I'll...

I'll just do my best.

Okay, well, I thought we'd just go,
like, through a bit of a background and

we'll take you for a little wander
around.

Well, the first thing to know about
flying in Australia is that the ARC

have a clue what it's doing.

Hey, Scotty.

Fellas.

Jimbo.

Oh, g'day, Rolly.

Hey.

Check it out.

I can see it. Are you listening?

Cut it out on the break.

You're costing us three grand a month.
Why can't you just ease down like

everyone else?

Yep, okay.

Hey, I don't make them like this
anymore, eh? Probably a good reason for

Did you hear what I said?

Absolutely not. I'm with you all the
way. Hey, she's a beauty.

What's it supposed to do?

It's a smoke machine.

Skywriting.

Eighty bucks a letter.

Think of the potential.

Eat at Joe's. Seven hundred bucks, ten
minutes work. Or you could do a

There was a young man from Nantucket.
Guess how much?

Seven grand.

Well, it depends on the version.

God help us.

What do you think about the idea of
retraining pilots?

What do they need retraining for?

Oh, they're new to Australia.

Oh, no, no, no, don't do it.

Don't do it. I've done it before. It's a
nightmare.

You spend your whole time trying to work
out what Altimeter is in Polish or

Swahili or Boganvillian.

Oh, it's good money.

Okay, so any questions so far?

What, no questions at all?

Okay, well, how about a bit of revision?

How do you define controlled airspace?

Sergei.

Controlled airspace, how do you define
it?

Mikhail.

How long have you guys been in
Australia?

Have you been here long? Long?

Long? Long.

Don't worry.

Wait here. Be back in a sec.

They don't speak English.

None? Not a word.

I mean, what is this anyway? I thought
it was some sort of refresher course.

Well, it is in a way. They're pilots in
their country and they need to do their

retraining to get their ARC
accreditation.

Well, I hope they're paying for it.

Yep, there's hundreds of them. It's an
absolute goldmine.

Lauren, I've been talking for half an
hour and they haven't understood a word.

Do the best that you can for today and
then I'll sell them on to Chris.

Show them around the place. You don't
need to communicate.

It would sure help.

That's Vidanya. That means goodbye, I
think.

Oh, right.

Triviet.

Yeah, whatever.

What's wrong with you?

200 bucks down the gurgle, that's what's
wrong with me.

The Skyrider is stuffed.

Oh, no, I don't believe it.

It's true.

No, not you, the Cossacks.

Hey, Triviet.

Triviet. Triviet.

How do you guys drink?

The river's weird.

Looks great from the air.

Yeah, it looks fine from up there.

Yeah, when you get down close to it,
it's a shocker.

It's a crying shame, that's what it is.

When I was a kid, that river used to be
the heart of the whole town.

We used to water ski up between here and
Gibiganya.

Oh, yeah, we'd fish in it, swim in it.

You know about the cyanide from Mount
Garrett?

Yeah, the bastards.

They're killing this town.

There used to be 6 ,000 people living
here. Now it's about two and a half.

I'll tell you one thing.

Most of the families with young kids
have already taken off.

There's more kids getting sick around
here than any other district.

Well, get on to the health department.

We did that. They said statistically we
were no worse off than any other area.

But you tell statistics to my little
girl.

For months we used to drive up to the
hospital in Dorrigan.

Every week they did tests on her.

I just don't know.

Hi.

Hi.

Danielle, Chris Manning. He finds the
parts up for us.

Nice to meet you.

Yeah, g'day.

Chris has offered to fly Kirsty down
today.

Thanks, that's great.

Every visit counts.

They must know what it is.

That's what I keep saying.

Dr. Jacobs just says they're not sure.

It's horrible watching her fighting it.

Your husband says it's some kind of
allergy or something.

From what I can make out, it's an
allergy to everything.

The asthma's getting worse.

If it is asthma, she reacts to almost
anything touching her skin.

She can't eat any food with
preservatives in it. Now they're saying

something wrong with her liver.

She gets exhausted so easily.

And she falls asleep like this.

I always worry she's not going to wake
up.

She's just got to stay positive.

I'm just waiting for the day when she'll
be healthy again.

I'm just holding on till then.

Hi, Kirsty.

Hello, Mrs Morgan.

How are you?

I'm feeling much better than last time.

Well, that's good. Your father rang and
said you were coming. This is a

surprise. I've got an offer to fly here,
so here we are.

Alan Jacobs.

Who's Mary?

This place is heaps better than Daryl
and Darryl Hospital.

Well, I'll show you around.

So you're a friend of the family, are
you?

Yeah, I feel like I am.

It's a really nice gesture, you flying
them down like that.

I normally have to go up to Dorrigal to
do this.

I understand a family can't fly down on
a regular basis.

Why don't you keep her in hospital?

That wouldn't be any good.

She's better off with her family.

She's a remarkable kid.

What's she allergic to?

The 20th century.

She's one of those organisms that's
reacting to the pollution around.

Somehow she's developed a low threshold
to all sorts of things.

Chemicals, pollution, food additives.

What can you do for her?

Maybe you should talk to her parents.

Well, I have. I spoke to her mother on
the trip down.

Oh, yeah? What did she say?

Well, she's trying to stay calm, remain
positive.

She's not getting it.

Or maybe she's refusing to.

Kirsty is a very sick little girl.

How long's she got?

There's no way of telling.

Something will trigger a chemical
reaction in her body, like a massive

reaction. She will go into a coma.

Oh, my God. Oh, wow.

Good luck, guys.

Hi. Can I help you?

We'd like to charter a flight to Bega.

I'm sure we can work out a rate.

When are you thinking of leaving?

As soon as possible.

Okay.

To Bega?

Bega's service or something?

No.

So what is it, a conference?

Oh, something like that.

I know, you're into advertising, I can
always tell.

We're priests.

Excuse me?

Well, not quite yet.

Peace.

Smaller than I thought.

Hey, size isn't everything.

Yep.

If they're not married, they're gay. If
they're not gay, they're priests.

Who'd be a chick?

You guys don't seem like typical
priests.

So, what's a typical priest look like?

Oh, guys in robes?

Well, you don't seem like a typical
pilot.

What's this one?

Altimeter.

8 ,300 feet.

Very good.

And this?

Airspeed?

You sure you haven't done this before?

I've always wanted to.

Being up here gives you an amazing
perspective.

Yeah.

One of the things I love about it.

So you want to give it a try?

Never ask.

Okay, hold on.

Now just pick a point on the horizon and
head straight towards it.

Oh, yeah.

Hey, check this, guys.

Oh, this is amazing.

Hey,

how's it going?

I don't know.

Don't touch it.

I don't even know what I'm doing.

So why are you doing it?

I'm not, I'm not, I'm just, I'm not sure
yet, okay?

Idiot.

Idiot. Idiot.

I don't need to.

Whoa. It's all right, I've got it.

Circuit area bigger. Choose your own VMC
conditions. We'll be cancelling flight

plan. Advise details later.

That sounds ominous.

No, not really.

Storm plans are just moving pretty fast.

We might just be late coming back.

Lexi?

Hold this.

How's it going?

I'm not sure.

Can you hold this?

Timbo, look, I've got to go. I'm lost
and gone.

Just hang on.

Timbo.

I've just got to try and stick you out a
bit. Timbo.

That little kid, Kirsty, I spoke to her
doctor.

She's not going to make it.

It's awful.

Wherever she's got the terminal.

We're poisoning our fish and our birds.

We're starting on ourselves.

Our river's choked to death.

Kids are getting sick in the town.

Someone will be doing something about
it.

You can't tell me a whole river's
poisoned and everyone's ignoring it.

That's what's happening.

I'm sorry, Chris. I've got to go.

Yeah, see you.

Do you want to grab a drink or something
to eat later?

Nothing.

Okay. See you tomorrow.

He's out for dinner.

Oh, look at me, I'm stopping.

You're going to need a change of
clothes.

You sound like my mum.

Um, do you have a phone?

Did he call back your phone? Yeah, it's
just down the hall.

I'll get you some dry clothes.

Great.

Paula. Yeah.

Oh, there's a storm off the coast.

After you.

Sure.

I won't be there.

Yeah. I don't know.

A couple of hours at least.

Eh, you too.

Bit of bad luck?

Ah, yeah, it just came out of nowhere.

They do this time of year.

Something wrong?

Well, it's just a bit embarrassing. I'm
stuck here with all these priests and,

um... Well, I'm not even Catholic.

I don't think they'd mind that.

I'll put you off a bit, all these
believers wandering around.

I can imagine.

Never been in a place like this before.

It's not a bad place, really.

What are you doing here?

I'm in charge.

You're kidding.

God, I'm sorry.

Not God.

I didn't... I just thought that you were
a worker.

I am.

I'm Father Stephen.

You're welcome to join us for dinner and
mass.

Thanks.

Do I call you... What do I call you,
Father?

You can call me Stephen.

Oh, Jason!

Well, that's nice to know.

Sorry, I thought you were Father
Stephen.

All I've got are these jeans and a T
-shirt.

That's a great thing.

They might be a bit big.

Well, if they're not, I won't be down
for dinner.

Thank you.

No worries.

Yeah.

No, listen.

They've been using aerial spraying in
the district for years. Plus there's

copper mine or something upstream.

I mean, the whole place is horrible.

Kids are getting sick in the town. This
little kid's only 11 years old.

Well, Mike, how would I know? Just sit
her down and talk to her. She's going to

die, for God's sake.

Well, film all the dead fish and birds.
I mean, what the hell is this? You were

the one that said to let you know if I
found a good story.

Yeah, all right. Yeah.

See you.

To Aeroflot.

Aeroflot. Aeroflot.

Aeroflot.

Gentlemen. I hope you're hungry.

Starving.

Wow.

Loaves and fishes.

You guys into tradition or what?

Brother Luke was a chef before he joined
us here.

He cooked as well.

A little.

Bless us, O Lord, for these thy gifts,
which of thy bounty we are about to

receive. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Amen.

Amen.

After you, Paula.

Thanks.

Cheers. Cheers.

One, two, uh, Ucrania!

Ucrania!

How did that already?

Good night.

Good night.

More wine, Paula?

Oh, no thanks, I've got to fly.

Didn't know you guys were allowed to
have so much fun.

It's not a prison.

Sorry. Well, that's okay.

All right.

What do they make this stuff out of?

Potatoes. Yeah?

All right.

Potatoes. Potato farmers.

And their husbands.

And their tractors.

Oh, amazing storm.

Yeah.

So is this your T -shirt?

Yeah. So where did you get it?

At the concert.

You were at the concert?

I was there.

Yeah? Yeah.

So, are you sure you're in the right
business?

Well, it's taken me a long time to get
to this point, but, yeah, this is what

I'm supposed to do.

I just, I don't get it. I mean, look at
you.

You're smart, talented, you're gorgeous.

You could be anything that you want.

That's nice to know.

I mean, what's in it for you? What do
you get out of it?

I don't think that's the right question.

I'm not doing this for me.

Well, who are you doing it for?

I've got to go.

Bye, Paula.

You fix?

Oh, no fix.

I hate.

I chuck in.

What is chuck?

Chuck is... No.

Kaput.

Oh, I'm fixing.

I'll be there in about 15 minutes.

We'll get there quickly if you can,
Chris. It seems quite urgent.

Thanks. Bye -bye.

Take care. We'll see you, Sierra.

Thanks for coming. We phoned Dr Jacobs
and he said it'd be better in

the city than at Dorical. No problem.

Hi.

Kirstie, why don't you put your pyjamas
on?

You'll be more comfortable.

I don't want to wear my pyjamas.

I just want to wear my boots.

Okay.

Can I fly the plane?

You're feeling up to it?

You too.

It's not fair.

I'm all right. I'm just a bit sick.

Okay, well, you can fly the plane then.

Good.

Are we going or what?

We'll just have to leave a note for Dad.

I already wrote one.

Dear Dad, me and Mum have gone to see Dr
Jacobs because I spewed all over the

place.

We'll phone you when we get there. Love
you, Dad.

Kirsty. P .S. I'm going to be a pilot.

So you're sure it's his?

I had it on when he came in.

Didn't you notice?

Hey, I thought it was an advertiser,
remember?

Look, what gets me is why normal red
-blooded guys would just want to

into something like that.

Maybe he dropped it on purpose.

Why would he do that?

I don't know.

Like, you know, how you accidentally on
purpose leave your jacket round at a

guy's place.

I don't see if he's a priest.

So? Hey, did I still do celibacy? Yeah.

Comes with the territory.

I just don't get that, you know.

I can't have a relationship with God,
right? Surely God's not going to mind if

you share that.

His whole life is just going to be
outside the real world.

I don't know.

Kirsty.

Oh, my God.

Please.

Oh, my God.

Please.

Good.

Mom.

You're all right. Just relax a minute.

I'll fly next time.

Don't worry, Mom.

Ready to be dazzled?

I'm nauseous with anticipation.

You won't believe this.

I'm impressed. I didn't think you could
actually manage it.

Oh, ye of little faith.

So what do you think I should write? I
was thinking maybe keep it short and

snappy, something like Fly Big Sky.

Don't you think that's a little
ambitious?

Oh, why, this little baby works
perfectly. So you ready?

Fly Big Sky.

All right.

Now stand by for some music.

Well, it's music, but it has humor in
it.

Driving hard now, Fred. See whether I
can describe what's going to happen.

You are the only one.

Jimbo!

Paula! Where are you going?

Not rusted on right now.

Eden run.

Oh, that's Jimbo's run.

Oh, seems I accidentally ended up with
it.

Oh, right.

Making your pit stop to the nunnery?

Seminary.

Bring one back for me.

What are you doing back here?

Um, I was looking for Luke.

Um, I brought him back his clothes.

You flew all the way down here to return
a T -shirt?

That's very nice of you.

Yeah.

Um, well, I was on my way to Eden.

Well, I'm sorry, but he's not here.

He's gone to the city to see his
parents.

Oh.

Would you like to stay for a cup of
coffee?

No, no, I'd better go.

Can you just give these to him for me?

What's wrong?

Nothing. I just... I've got to go.

What happened to your business venture?

Don't want to talk about it.

Got your employees working on it now,
have you?

What employees?

This time, I fix him.

No vodka.

Yeah. Well, I happen to think that the
press does have a responsibility in

something like this.

Don't give me that, Mike. This place is
poison. The kid dies. What else do you

need? Oh, that's crap and you know it.

Well, why doesn't somebody do something
about it? You're the one that's

always... Oh, go to buggery.

I see how it works.

It's not me.

It's not you.

It's not the cotton farmers.

It's not anyone.

But guess what?

The river's poisoned and a kid dies.

So do something.

Like what?

I don't know.

Well, you can do six years of medicine,
followed by three or four of a higher

degree. You can beg and scrape for some
research funding.

You can watch your marriage fall apart.

You can spend years in a place like
this, watching children die, working for

breakthrough that'll make it all
worthwhile. But that's just my way.

probably a lot smarter than that.

Don't you get angry?

I did.

I ran out of patience with anger.

I've got work to do.

Will you go to the funeral?

Yes.

First I do the post -mortem, then I go
to the funeral.

Welcome to hell.

Isn't there something I can do?

You said that already.

I wish I could give you the answer
you're looking for, but I can't.

Excuse me.

A pilot?

Good.

Get used to it.

Got a soul to fill my spine.

Got silver to break it down. And drum is
number five.

I'm feeling right in the spot. I'm about
to go away. I'm in the world.

And when you take on the natural feel.

Thanks. Hi.

I got a call from Father Stephen saying
he'd return my clothes.

I just thought I'd pop in and say
thanks.

How many are there?

There's two.

Could be one more.

Six -year -old boy.

And they've all got it?

Well, yeah, he said they had versions of
it.

What are you going to do?

I'll fly out, pick him up, and take him
into his doctor every week or so.

OK.

Yeah, there'll be fuel and, you know,
something else on top.

I'll pay for it. No, you won't. This
one's on Big Sky.

It's not much when you think of it.

Will it make any difference?

You heard the story of the starfish?

No.

Well, there's this guy, and he's walking
along the beach, and he sees all these

starfish washed up in the sand.

There's thousands of them just lying
there, dying in the sun.

And there's this bloke walking along,
and he's picking them up one by one,

chucking them back into the surf.

And the guy says, what are you doing
that for?

That won't make any difference.

And the bloke bends over, picks up
another one,

tosses it back into the water.

And he said, it made a difference to
that one.

You a barfly now.

Yep.

Where'd you get that?

Someone just gave it to me.

I've had a wee few days.

Join the club.

Chris, do you believe in God?

Well, I like Christmas.

Didn't get much of it. That's not the
question.

Do you?

Well, I never have.

It's a big dark universe out there.

I do believe in God.

Oh, I don't know.

Believe he is there, he's not going to
fix it.

Fix what?

Everything.

We must look pretty stupid from up
there, what we're doing in the class.

You've lived a whole life and you
haven't worked that out till now.

I'm not working.

Oh.

Cheers. Big ears.

Cheers.
