Project Leader: [over a loudspeaker] Could we have the lights in the arena down 60 percent, please... 60 percent.

[the lights go down and running lights turn on one at a time up the runway]

Project Leader: I don't think we could have asked for a more beautiful evening, do you? Okay, watch the skies please... We now show uncorrelated targets approaching from the north-northwest.
