		In these gathering shadows come Hughes' purchase of TWA and his battles with Pan American's bully tycoon Juan Trippe (Alec Baldwin) and Trippe's Maine Senator Owen Brewster (Alan Alda), in the famed Senate committee hearing showdown.
		This leads to one of "The Aviator's" two scenes that rank among the greatest in a long time: Hughes "taking down" Maine Senator Ralph Owen Brewster at a congressional hearing on corruption in the awarding of World War II-era government contracts.
		The other outstanding scene is the Beverly Hills plane crash that almost killed Hughes and probably exacerbated the dementia, germophobia and haggard appearance of his final reclusive decades.

		Enter Juan Trippe (Alec Baldwin) and his government henchman Senator Ralph Owen Brewster (Alan Alda) who together conspire to get Howard out of the picture so Trippe's Pan-Am can buy out TWA and, essentially, own the skies.
		Throughout this journey, we see Howard brush shoulders with everyone from Eva Gardner to Errol Flynn, demise into the eccentric and raving madman we all know him as becoming, and display and incredible show of tenacity at the Washington hearings designed to bring he and his empire to a crashing halt.
