The Odyssey of Flight 33 - S2-E18
Character mistake: The real speed that was reported was 3,000 knots. At one point, the plane encountered a bright flash, and violent shaking. The Captain surmised that they broke the sound barrier. 3,000 knots equates to over 3,000mph. The sound barrier (Mach 1) is about 767mph, and the captain would know that.

Other mistake: One of the crew members looks at the air speed indicator and states they are going over 2100 miles per hour. Why would a subsonic plane have an indicator that reads to 2100 mph?
Answer: It's explained in the episode. The aliens are experimenting to see how humans react to various scenarios. This just happens to involve them using super strength.
Thanks. It's been a long time since I saw the episode so I forgot.
