List of voters for the quote

Odie: Hey, you want the good news or the bad news? Howard: Bad news, always. Odie: Alright, we've installed the 450 radial, but the struts won't take the vibrations. [Gives Howard a magnifier to look at the strut] The minute we fire her up, the struts start cracking at the attach points. Howard: Well, what's the good news? Odie: There isn't any. Howard: Goddamn it, Odie, if the 450's too big, we just gotta figure something else out. Odie: Well, we've done everything. We've rebuilt her from top to toe. Now, if we drain the fuel tank for a couple of runs, she might make 180 MPH. Howard: I want minimum 200, alright? Odie: Yeah, well I want a date with Theda Bara, but that ain't gonna happen either. Howard: Ah, don't be so sure...Well, if the struts won't sustain the engine, then maybe we get rid of the struts. Odie: No, then the top wing falls off. Howard: ...Then let it. Odie: What? Howard: Who-who says we need a top wing? Who says we need anything? Odie: [Realizes what Howard's thinking] A monoplane... Howard: A cantilevered monoplane, right? I mean, they're doing it in France. To hell with the top wing and the struts. Odie: Put in a 550 Wasp engine... Howard: 100 octane fuel, that would give us a top horsepower of what? Odie: 700. Howard: We squeeze that to 1,000, we've got the fastest plane ever built. Odie: You know, I just gotta say, we've already spent over $200,000 rebuilding this plane. Howard: Yeah, to hell with it. [Grabs a 2x4 and tosses it to Odie] Tear it up, Odie! Go on! [Odie swings the board at the struts, breaking them and the top wing]
