Directed by: Stuart Baird
Starring: Kurt Russell, John Leguizamo, Halle Berry, Steven Seagal, Oliver Platt
Trivia: When the F-14s are ordered to shoot down flight 343, the radar intercept officer on the lead F-14 tells his pilot that he just received the order on the CRM-115. This is a reference to Dr. Strangelove. In that film, the B-52 crew receives their orders over the CRM-114.
Trivia: Despite being second billed to Kurt Russell, Steven Seagal is not listed in the opening credits.
Factual error: Computerized maps throughout the movie show the plane heading due west past Spain and Portugal from Athens to Washington, D.C. Aircraft follow great circle route; although Athens and DC are similar in latitude, the shortest flight path is north over Scandinavia. No commercial air route between Athens and the East Coast fly over Spain.
David Grant: If you don't believe me, what are you doing up here?
Lt. Colonel Austin Travis: Well... who the hell else is gonna do it? You?
