Directed by Jack Smight, starring Charlton Heston, George Kennedy (add more)

Genres: Drama, Thriller, Action

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

Entry Shortly after the plane has landed you notice two oddities: the fire services leave more or less immediately after landing and another plane is taxiing to leave the airport. A major emergency of this nature would probably see the airport closed for a while. [As this was an accidental collision and the jet had landed safely, the danger is, for the most part, over. The fire crews might be leaving quickly, but the taxiing jet may simply be relocating to another part of the airport, having arrived recently or simply to move away from the damaged jet. Also, a closed airport isn't motionless and deserted. Internal operations like moving planes and equipment would still continue unless an imminent threat were still posed, which is not here.]
Entry In the end, Charlton Heston & girlfriend are walking down stairs that a moment ago was an escape slide. They pan out & up, and none of the slides are out & the doors are closed. [Charleton Heston and Karen Black are exiting the aircraft on the starboard (right) side of the plane. The evacuation was entirely on the left side. On the VHS version, an airport worker comes up a set of stairs to open the 1R exit door. The DVD version does not show the door being opened but does show that stairs have been brought up to it.]
