Revealing mistake: In Guatemala, when young Terminator shoots John, young Arnie's face is used in the front shot, but in the shots from behind, one can tell it's not Arnie's face but a body double's, Brett Azar's.
Continuity mistake: When the main characters first meet up with the old terminator at his residence, Sarah tries to turn her shotgun on him, but is stopped. Instead, the round goes off punching a hole in a wooden ceiling of the front porch. The resulting debris lands on Arnold's T-shirt, standing out because of the T-shirt's dark color. Several times the camera angle changes and the debris appears and disappears several times throughout the shot. Most notably a splinter of wood on his shoulder.
Grace: Who are you?
Sarah Connor: My name is Sarah Connor. I've never seen one like you before. Almost human.
Grace: I am human.
Trivia: SPOILER! John Connor's death scene during the opening marks the first time since the original film that Arnold as the Terminator has killed a human.
Question: When Dani and Grace are in the vehicle that drops out the back of the plane...how then is it possible that the plane is able to nearly come down upon them if it was moving in a forward motion at a great speed in opposite direction? The plane would naturally have gone down miles away from them and not nearly collided with them.
Answer: The simplest answer is, this is a movie, and movies often exaggerate, change, or fabricate details that logically could never occur in real-life. This is a perfect example of a deliberately faked action sequence that is contrived solely to entertain the audience by employing a 'suspension of disbelief.' It's more exciting and suspenseful to be able to see the plane crash, even though, as you point out, it realistically would be miles away by that time.
