Factual error: After a power outage the captain states that operating on batteries (?) he has 10 minutes of power, followed by an uncontrolled descent. That is ludicrous. Aircraft can glide to a landing with no power or engines. Further, commercial airliners have a Ram Air Turbine that can supply hydraulic as well as electrical power even if the engines are not functioning.
Plane (2023)
Directed by: Jean-François Richet
Starring: Gerard Butler, Mike Colter, Yoson An
Factual error: They request an altitude of 40,000ft, however the service ceiling for an MD80 used in the film is 37,000ft. (00:09:00)
Continuity mistake: For the first emergency landing, the co-pilot has his seatbelt on, then it is off a second later, then back on, then off again, then on again.
