A Crop Duster flew before the sunset releasing it's toxins to safeguard the plants from any pest. Down below the earth, there is a makeshift plane with it's propeller made out of a long plank. Two little penguins were playing it. Two best friends that has each other's backs. Skipper McCawley and his best friend Kowalski Walker. The two penguins were reenacting a dogfight with one at the controls and the other as the tail gunner at the back. The two penguins were watching at the watchtower as Skipper's father lands the plane and Skipper had an idea.
Skipper looked at his best friend "Come on, Kowalski." Skipper climb down the watch tower and waved his flipper "I'll show you how to fly!"
The two penguins ran towards the plane "I should be at front, Skipper!" Kowalski yelled
"No! You should be at the back." Skipper hopped on the pilot's seat while Kowalski hopped on the back
"I'm bigger, that's why I should be at the front." Kowalski said
Skipper smirked "Well I'm older and I'm teaching so no!"
Kowalski smiled and looks at Skipper's control panel "It's like it's ready to fly!"
Skipper nodded "Been up here couple of times that I'm already familiar with the controls."
Kowalski tapped Skipper's shoulder "Let's stop talking and fly this and get those German bandits."
Skipper smiled "Roger that, Kowalski." Skipper twisted a few nobs until he accidentally twisted the ignition
Kowalski was now starting to panic "Make it stop, Skipper!"
"That's what I'm doing, Kowalski!" the plane was now starting hop up and down but Skipper was keeping it at the ground
Kowalski looked at the ground "Skipper! We're flying! We're flying!"
Skipper also looked at the ground "We are flying!" their enjoyment didn't and Skipper stopped the plane. Both penguins hopped out the plane "My daddy's gonna kill me for this."
Both penguins ran towards the barn while saying "We flew! We flew!" As soon as Kowalski turned around, a adult penguin grabbed his flipper and drags him away from Skipper "I told you that you shouldn't play with this stupid boy" Skipper can't do anything except to watch his best friend being brutally dragged by his father
Kowalski tries to free himself from his father's grip "He ain't stupid, dad! He ain't stupid!" his father faced him and slapped Kowalski at the face causing him to fall down to the ground
Skipper can't help it but he ran back towards the makeshift plane and grabbed the wooden propeller, he intercepted Kowalski and his father and smacked Kowalski's dad at the head
Skipper stood still while holding the mock propeller "You leave him alone!" Kowalski's dad was starting to stand up and tries to attack Skipper but he raised his mock propeller "I will bust you up you dirty German!" and Kowalski's dad froze
Kowalski's dad was just looking at Skipper's blue eyes "What you call me?" Skipper was ready to put Kowalski's dad to sleep but he spoke instead "I fought the Germans in France. Followed them in trenches. And I pray to God that nobody sees what I saw." Kowalski's dad looked at Kowalski and at Skipper and he walked away without another word
Kowalski looks at Skipper "You're my best friend." he starts to follow his dad home "Daddy, wait!"
1940
Years later and the Nazis are attacking Europe without mercy. Paris falls to the hands of the Germans as the United States still refuses to join the fight.
Mitchel Field, Long Island
January, 1941
P 40s can be seen flying from the horizon. Soon, most of the planes are back except for two planes. Both planes were piloted by Skipper McCawley and his wingman Kowalski Walker. Both pilots are trying to do a stunt never done before. Their commanding officer is on the ground with the other pilots nothing they could do but watch the two fly boys.
"Are they still in the air?" their commanding penguin officer asked Sgt. Julien Winkle, a lemur with a voice problem
Julien nodded "They're still training, sir." they look at the two P 40s
Inside one of the P 40s cockpit "Alright, Kowalski, let's show them how to fly these babies."
Kowalski listened at his best friend's message "Hey, Skipper, you do know that this planes ain't a crop dusters, right?"
"Come on, don't be a baby, Kowalski." Skipper said over the radio
Kowalski shook his head "Nope. You know I ain't doin' that."
Skipper smirked "C'mon, I'll guide you through it."
Kowalski rolled his eyes "Whatever you say, Skipper." the two P 40s circled around until both planes are face to face
The penguin officer looks at the two planes "What in the name of God are they doin'?"
Julien realizes what the two penguins are gonna do "Oh boy."
"You're always busting my butt, Skipper." Kowalski looks at Skipper's plane heading towards him "Which way are you goin'?"
Skipper looks outside both of his windows "I'll go right... no, I'll go left. I'll go left." the two planes are coming in closer
"Alright, so you'll roll left, right?" Kowalski asked Skipper through the radio
"Right. Right."
Kowalski was starting to panic from the directions "Right as in going right? Or right as in going left?"
Skipper was now getting confused "Now you got me all mixed up! I don't know, make up your mind!"
"GOD, SKIPPER! WE'RE GOING RIGHT! RIGHTY TIGHTY!" Kowalski yelled over the radio and both penguins struggled to turn their planes right and executed a perfect maneuver
All of the pilots cheered for Skipper and Kowalski "Those are some smooth aces." one of the pilots said in awe
The penguin officer looked at him "What are those words that came from your beak just now?"
"Uhm, nothin', sir." the pilot replied
The penguin officer looked at all the pilots "Just let me tell ya, those farm boys are grounded!"
Julien stood still "Yes, sir. Unacceptable... usage of military aircrafts, sir."
"Get those hedge hoppers to Doolittle's office." the penguin officer walked away
Julien nodded "Yes, sir!"
