Quote context

[...]

- We used to call him Whistling Dan.

- One of the finest men you'd ever know. And the most miserable.

- He was down in Colombia same time I was.

- He's taking off one night with a full load and one of them South American line squalls decided to hit the field at the same time.

- The wind shifts too late for him to stop and he don't quite make it over a little hill at the end of the field.

- I remember that one. Right after the war, wasn't it?

- Yeah. Dan hits flap, but the ship breaks in half and there's nothing but fire in 10 seconds.

- Dan gets tossed through the cockpit window and only gets a few scratches plus that game leg of his.

- Which leaves him alive to blame himself.

- Everybody else gets killed.

- Sounds to me like he was pretty lucky.
