Wow Mr. Roper was on that flight.

That's really who he was. The poor guy's gone now.

The whole brake failure thing reminded me of "Speed". "Stay above 50! 50 mph!" It makes me wonder if the dude has ever heard of reverse thrust. Better than brakes anyday. Haha his approach looked like my approach on Microsoft Flight Sim.....

@emiratesA380NCL Agreed I had saw this movie over and over before Internet Era. 747 is simply a Beauty. Not to mention the soundtrack is amazing. Only other movie with 747 closeup is Air force one, but its all Computer generated, this is REAL.

Welcome to Columbian Airlines! We will make sure if theres an emergency, we land you! In soviet america, Pland lands YOU!

Well, that's true.

@jerico641 Yeah, one was sucked out
-
Whatever you say; I'm no pilot. It just seems like they'd be either sucked out by some pretty incredible wind velocity or frozen solid in a few minutes. I guess they must have REALLY slowed down.

@jerico641 They slowed down and decended. This is an an excellent film showing the classic 747 at its best. This is a real aircraft and all of the scenes are real. Just excellent.
I have to wonder if, sometime around 1982 when the Disaster/Airport Flick Era was over, stars like Heston, Newman (McQueen was already dead then), George Kennedy, Gene Hackman, Ernest Borgnine, Ava Gardner, Robert Wagner, William Holden, Burt Lancaster, Faye Dunaway, Karen Black, Jack Albertson, Stella Stevens, etc. ever got together and compared their various disaster/airport movies from the '70s? I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall for THAT conversation LOL.
