(controllers chattering)
(soft uneasy music)

- Delta 348, turn left, heading 255.

- [Pilot] Delta 348, heading 255.

(radar beeping)

- TWA 506, contact LA center at 135.05.

- [Pilot] Copy, TWA 506,
switching to 135.05.

- Global Air 927, descend and maintain

flight level one, 4,000.

- Thank you Salt Lake, Global Air 927,

descending to one 4,000.

Hey, Salt Lake.
- Mm-hmm, go ahead Global Air.

- I wish you could be up here with us.

It is one gorgeous night.

- [Pilot] What's going on here, Salt Lake?

My fish finder's going crazy.
(radar beeping)

- Whoa, traffic at my 3:00.

Where the hell did he come from?

I can't hear you, Salt Lake.

We need vectors away from
all this traffic, now.

- Hey, hey, we're gonna run into somebody

up here, Salt Lake.

Why don't you help us? Why
don't you tell us what to do?

- Ah, all right, ah, ah.

Global Air 927 descent,
ah, ah, climb and, ah just,

no that, climb and,
maintain flight level 180.

- Say again Salt Lake,
we are not reading you.

- I said ah, ah I-I said Global Air 927,

climb and maintain flight level 18, no ah,

no there's, there's a plane there.

Ah ah, climb and, and maintain flight-

- I can't hear you Salt
Lake, you are breaking up, I-

- What, what is it?
- Salt Lake.

Oh, no, no.
(alarm beeping)

- What what is that?
(planes exploding)

- I'm sorry, honey. Did
the light spook you?

- Hmm? Oh, no.

It was just, ah, I was having a dream.

- About what?

- You really wanna know?

- Yes, I do. (chuckling)
- Beg.

- (chuckling) We're gonna be late.

- Oh, king to pawn's four.

- I thought we finished
this game last night.

- Oh, no, no.

No, you fell asleep so you
wouldn't have to lose this game.

Pawn to king's four.
(soft gentle music)

- I'm not gonna have time for
my morning swim. (laughing)

- Yes, you will.
- You promise?

(soft gentle music)

(water sloshing)
(birds chirping)

- So here's my proposition.
- Okay, shoot.

- I know we've been talking

about the Machu Picchu trail for months.

- Come on, I bought guidebooks.

I gave the llama guy a deposit.

- Now wait a minute,
just hear me out, okay?

I want you to picture a tiny island.

- How tiny?
- Very small place.

Makes Gilligan's Island
look like a continent.

- I see, and where would
this tiny little island be?

- Off the coast of Borneo.

- Borneo?
- Come on, hon.

The greatest diving in the world,

migrating whales and
nesting sea turtles and,

and whole schools of hammerheads.

- Hammerhead sharks?
- Yeah.

They don't attack when they're schooling.

Just when they're, you
know, by themselves.

- Oh, I feel so much more
comfortable now, thank you.

- Come on.
- Get in here.

- Come on, it'll be fun.

Besides, I'm ready for a break.

- Yeah, you and me both.

- No, honey I'm, I'm really ready.

(soft poignant music)

(engine roaring)

- [Shelley] I hope it's
not too busy today.

- [Jack] What do you expect?
We're down one runway.

(soft thoughtful music)
(engine roaring)

(wheels scraping)

(soft thoughtful music continues)

So, what do you think about Borneo?

- How private is this island?
- Very.

Look, just think about it.
That's all I'm saying, okay?

- Okay, I'll think about
Borneo, you think about this.

Pawn to queen's bishop four.

- Pawn to queen's bishop four.
- Yep.

- Oh, that's good.
(Shelley laughing)

- That's very good.
- I was dreaming about it

all last night.
- That's. (groaning)

- Okay, ah, queen to
king's bishop six, check.

- Weather briefing at 8:00
Shelley, storms coming in.

And Harriet wants to talk to you

in her office afterwards.
- I'll be there.

When are they gonna finish
resurfacing that runway?

- Not in our lifetime, not
the way this crew works.

A drop of rain falls,
and they're outta there

for the rest of the day.
- Yeah, tell me about it.

All right, I'll see you on
the floor in half an hour.

- You got it.
- Hey.

Hey, what did you mean this morning?

- About what?

- We were talking about the
sharks, and you said that you-

- Oh no, no, no it's,
you don't have to worry

if they're in a school, see it's-

- No, no, no, that's not what I mean.

You said that you were
really ready for a break.

- Oh, just don't worry about that, okay?

Just caught me feeling
sorry for myself, and it's-

- Jack?
- Shelley,

listen, I love my job, okay?

I'm good at it, I'm pumped,

I'm ready to push the
metal around the thing,

like a big, macho,
(kiss smacking)

scoping thing, I'll see you.

- Yeah.
- I'll see you.

- Hey.
- Yeah.

- Knight takes queen,
checkmate. Read your mind.

- Oh.
(Shelley laughing)

- [Controller] So, I'll put
it in a new log for you.

- That's terrific, thank you.
- You got it.

- American 1826, turn right 4-0 degrees,

vectors for traffic on that.

Southwest 92, coming to
traffic at your 4:00.

- Looks like we got another
push period coming up.

Hope you didn't drink any of
that wimpy decaf this morning.

- No Grizzly, I am fully wired.

- Shelley go for the shark idea?

- Oh, she's mulling it over.
- She'll come around.

She's just as high octane as you are.

In fact, the idea of either of you

actually relaxing on a
vacation is pretty out there.

(controllers chattering)
(Jack sighing)

- One? Come on Harriet, the deal was

that I was supposed to
get three new controllers.

- There wasn't any deal, Shelley.

I told you I'd do the
best I could, and I did.

- I don't believe this.

Not only are we still using radar scopes

that came out of old battleships,

not only do we have a primary
computer that is so ancient,

so slow, it belongs in a
museum, for crying out loud.

- The FAA is planning to replace
all out-of-date computers

and radar scopes by the year 2003.

- 2003? Well whoa, hey,
what a relief Harriet.

Just think, only five more years
of our screens going blank.

Only five more years of near misses.

Harriet, we need that
equipment now, today.

- What do you want me to do, Shelley?

Go down to the computer
shack, buy this stuff,

and install it myself?
(phone ringing)

- All right, so who's my new controller?

- His name is Vernon Spencer.

- Good, he's 55 years
old and he's a rookie.

- He was a PATCO controller,
one of the ones Reagan fired.

- As in Ronald Reagan.

- Well, you were just complaining

that nothing changes around here.

He'll fit right in.

- Harriet, why put him in the hole?

I mean, put him up in the
tower, there's less pressure.

- He was retrained at
the academy, Shelley.

He was the top in his class.
Don't worry about him.

Start him off at the
bottom, he'll be all right.

- Yeah, he'll be fine, thanks.

- [Controller] 5000,
contact Salt Lake departure.

- Beastmaster, what's new?

- They're rerouting a lotta metal

because of that front over Dallas,

we're getting hand-off like crazy.

- Well, you can handle it.
Just focus and keep up with it.

- All right.

- Hey, so what'd she say?

- Oh please, it was the usual
bureaucratic song and dance.

You know, we are getting one new guy,

but of course he's a total fossil.

I want you to keep an eye
on those fighter jets.

Don't let them stray
from their coordinates.

We got a hell of a lotta
traffic out there today.

- I'm on top of it, sweetheart.

- [Shelley] You could just
call me boss if you'd like.

- Citation 2, Romeo Quebec,
descend from one-6000

to one-2000, acknowledge.

Continental 82, maintain present heading.

- Continental 82, copy.
- Citation 2,

Romeo Quebec, how do
you hear, Center over?

Citation 2, Romeo Quebec,
descend and maintain

one-2000, acknowledge.
- Is anything wrong?

- Where the hell is this guy?

Citation 2, Romeo Quebec,
how do you hear? Center over.

(radar beeping)
He's not answering.

- What were the last
instructions you gave him?

- Well, I told him to go to 12,000 feet,

but he never acknowledged.

- You'd better keep an eye on him,

watch out for incoming traffic.

If we don't hear from
him in a minute or two,

I'll call the tower.

In the meantime we're okay, as
long as we know his altitude.

- The computer is down.

- Hey, I'm juggling 20 flights here.

Can I have my information back, please?

- We are going down the pipes, man.

- Nobody's going down the
pipes Deparle, just calm down.

Will, hi, what's up?

- Something went wrong with the chillers,

the computer overheated.

- All right, so how long's it gonna take

before you can fix it?

- Well, we've located the problem,

maybe five minutes for it to cool off.

The older she gets more unpredictable

her hot flashes become.

- I know. Well just do what you can, Will.

We've got a lotta planes in the air.

- You don't have to remind me, Shelley

(controllers chattering)

- Approach, this is Shelley Lowe.

All of our computers are down here.

You're gonna have to ground
stop all departures immediately.

I don't know that, I will let
you know as soon as possible.

Jack, have you heard from
your missing pilot yet?

- Not yet, he's probably gonna,

oh, wait a minute, what is this?

See this?
- No I missed it, what?

- [Jack] Well right about here,

it's blinking on and off like a firefly.

- Maybe it's a ghost.
- No, that's a legitimate hit.

Hey Wes, we've got some
intermittent paint here.

Target last seen 15
miles from the airport.

Last heading, approximately 230 degrees.

Altitude is unknown.

Anybody tell me what the hell that is?

They don't know what that is.

Maybe something went wrong

with the computer during the handoff.

Look, there it is again.
(radar beeping)

- He must be heading
straight for the signal.

This damn radar can't
pick him up at that angle.

Grizzly.
- Yeah.

- I want you to find
out what that plane is,

and what the frequency is that he's on.

Blaisdell, get on the phone
to the tower right now.

RL, you gotta find some other way

to transfer to those planes, okay?

- [Jack] He's back, this is not good.

- Well, we don't know that they're

at the same altitude, Jack.

- We don't know that he's not.

He was last at one-6000,

never acknowledged my descend order.

- Will somebody please get me in touch

with one of those planes, before we have

a mid-air collision up there?

Beastmaster.
- Yo.

- Call flight services right now.

- Got it.

- Citation 2, Romeo Quebec,
traffic at your 12:00,

six miles, oncoming traffic,
repeat, acknowledge.

Citation 2 Romeo Quebec,
traffic at your 12:00,

six miles opposite direction,
type and altitude is unknown.

Citation 2, Romeo Quebec, acknowledge.

- Why won't he answer?

- Citation 2, Romeo Quebec, acknowledge.

- Got that plane, Transatlantic
219, frequency 132.0.

- What the altitude?
- One-6000.

- They're gonna hit.

Get them outta there, Jack.

You've got to get them out.
- Right, right.

(tense dramatic music)
(engine roaring)

(alarm buzzing)
(radar beeping)

- The tower's not happy
about this ground stoppage.

- Pan Atlantic 219.
- Hey, who's got me up here?

- I've got a traffic alert.
- Turn, Jack.

- Ah, Pan Atlantic 219, turn right,

heading 260 immediately.
(alarm buzzing)

- 260, we're coming around.
(engine roaring)

(alarm buzzing)
(radar beeping)

(tense dramatic music)

- [Pilot] That was a close one, Salt Lake.

- Ah, yeah, we know. Ah,
maintain present heading.

- [Pilot] Salt Lake, this
is Citation 2, Romeo Quebec.

What was that altimeter reading?

- Where the hell have you been?

- [Pilot] I had some bad chili last night.

Had to leave the cockpit
for a few minutes.

- Ah-
- It's okay everyone.

- One-2000 descend, acknowledge.

- [Pilot] Thank you, Salt Lake.

I hope I didn't cause you
guys any problems down there.

- [Grizzly] Way to go,
Jack. Nerves of steel, man.

Jack really pulled that one out.

- Finally, all right everybody.

That was the excitement for the day.

(clapping) Come on,
let's get back to work.

- [Controller] That's affirmative, 61204.

- Huh, that was great, Jack.

Honey?
- (coughing) Ah, Grizzly?

- Yeah?
- You wanna cover

my scope for a second, thanks.

- Jack.
- Sure, man.

- Beastmaster, cover for me.
- Sure Shell, take your time.

All right you guys, come on.

You heard the lady, back to work, back.

- Jack, you okay?

- Yeah, no, I'm fine, I'm-

- Are you sure?
- Yeah, absolutely.

Listen, I, you know, (chuckling)

just got hot in there.

Maybe the air conditioning
took a dive with the computer.

- Maybe you should take the afternoon off.

(soft poignant music)
- No, no, I'm fine.

Really, I'm okay.

I'll, I'll be in in a second.

- You were really good in there.

- Thank you.

(soft poignant music continues)

(birds chirping)

- You never wear a tie to work.

- Mm, I thought I might today.
I don't want Harriet to think

I regard this meeting as casual.

Ever think about it, Shelley?

Who those people are on those airplanes?

You know, a little kid

that's going to visit
his grandparents, the,

the elderly couple on their
way to New York for their-

- You forgot about the singing nun,

and the little girl who
needs the transplant.

- I'm serious, you know.
- I know you are.

Don't worry, we'll make a
difference in that meeting today.

- Yeah?
- Yeah, okay?

- Okay.
(kiss smacking)

- All I'm saying is that at some point,

the FAA has got to wake
up and recognize the fact

that their equipment is outdated,

shoddy and downright dangerous.

- Look, I'd like to put aside

the equipment problem for a minute.

- How exactly do you expect
us to do that, Harriet?

I mean, are we supposed
to just ignore the fact

that we're working with equipment

that is so old it's
actually working against us?

- What if somebody other than Jack

would've been at that scope?

Somebody with less experience,

somebody with less presence of mind?

I mean, you would've a downed
airliner right now, Harriet.

- Actually, it's Jack's performance

we'd like to talk about for a minute.

- What about his performance?

- Jack is a great controller,
one of the best we've got.

- What are you trying to say?

That controller error had
anything to do with this?

The computer went down.

- No one is disputing that the
computers went down, Shelley.

No one is disputing the fact
that Jack may have saved

those two planes from
flying into one another,

but after the crisis was over-

- I lost it.
- You didn't lose it, Jack.

Don't be so dramatic, but
you did react in a way

which makes us think, maybe
you could use a break.

- A break?

You're talking about administrative leave,

and that goes directly on his record.

Come on guys, you're shifting the blame-

- Shelley.
- From faulty equipment,

to one of the best controllers-

- Shelley-
- We've ever had.

- Shelley, they're right.
(blinds clanking)

- Jack, what's going on?

- Nothing's going on.
You know, they're right.

You know it, I freaked.

- It was an intense
situation, anybody would've.

- Come on, Shelley.
- Come on.

- Anybody else might
have, yes, but not me.

Look Shelley, you know me, okay?

Look, something is wrong, you know?

I'm having dreams about planes
crashing into each other and,

and I'm sitting there at my scope useless.

Now come on, you know me.

You know, it used to be the,
the more intense it got, the,

the closer we got to going down the tubes,

the better I liked it, it
was like a, a video game.

You know, they were
just blips on a screen.

You know, this isn't a game,
this is life or death and,

and, and you can't afford to
have somebody flip out on you.

- So what do you wanna do about it?

- Ah, do you mind if I get
outta here for a while?

- Where do you wanna go?
- Galveston Bay.

My father's fishing cabin, you know?

- That's fine, you want company?

- I should be by myself.

You know, think about
things, figure stuff out.

(soft poignant music)
- Okay.

- I checked the weather for you.

It's clear all the way to Houston.

- Good.
- Sure I can't come with you?

- Come on honey, I don't
want this to be our vacation.

It's administrative leave, remember?

Gonna be okay while I'm gone?

- Sure I am.
- Good, me too.

- You positive?

- I'll catch a red fish for you.

- Can we still go diving
with those sharks?

- Sure we can. What, do
you think I lost my nerve?

- Have fun.
- Thanks.

- Bye.
- See ya.

(soft poignant music)

- Deparle, grab a beer after shift?

- Yeah, sure.
- American 105.

- [Controller] You're gonna have to wait

just a minute about that.
- 709.

- [Controller] It was
his birthday actually.

- What's the prognosis, Will?

- Well, it would be a hell of a lot easier

if there were any parts available.

I mean, look at this.

Who makes vacuum tubes anymore?

- Just try your best Will, you always do.

- Shelley Lowe?
- Yes.

- Vernon Spencer, your new controller.

- Oh right, it's great
to meet you, Mr. Spencer.

- Well, since you're my boss,

you could probably get away
with calling me Vernon.

- Well, I was just-
- You were just

according me the respect
due my advanced age.

- Has anybody explained to you

that you'll be starting out as an A-side?

- Oh yes, they explained it.

Ah, it's a glorified errand boy.

- Well, things are a bit
more complicated today

than they were in your day, Mr. Spencer.

They've got a different radar
system, more redundancy.

A hell of a lot more traffic.

- It doesn't look to me as
though anything's changed at all.

Everything's just like I left it.

- Dammit.

- You mind if I take a look at that?

(controllers chattering)
- Not at all.

- [Vernon] Now, that oughta
hold until the part comes in.

- Thank you.
- I'm just doing my bit

to reassure the flying public.

(water sloshing)
(soft poignant music)

(reel clicking)

(soft poignant music continues)

(waves sloshing)

(engine roaring)

(rain splattering)

(thunder rumbling)

- Shelley.
- Whoa.

- It is really coming down,

isn't it?
- Yeah.

- Radio says it's like this all the way

from the Canadian border
down to the Texas panhandle.

- It's gonna be one of those days.

We're probably gonna get
all the Denver traffic.

Thanks for saving me
from drowning out there.

- Oh, not a problem.

- Hey Vernon, can I ask you something?

- Sure.
- You're 55 years old.

You should be getting
ready for retirement,

but you've got less seniority than I do.

I mean-
- I have to see

some kind of ID.
- Why do you want

all this stress at your age?

- I'm calling them now, sir.
- What's the attraction?

- I don't know.

Well, you go to work
and you spend your day

keeping planes from
banging into each other,

and then you go home.

You think maybe somebody's alive

because you're good at your job.

I was making decent money selling cars,

but all that time it felt kinda like

I was a shepherd without a flock.

- Must have been hard
losing your job like that.

- (sighing) Well, to tell the
truth, back in those days,

we were just a little cocky.

$10,000 raise, or the whole
union walks, end of discussion.

What's Reagan gonna do
about that, hmm? Fire us?

We never dreamed he'd come up

with such excellent replacements.

- You don't like us, do you?

You don't think we can do the job.

- Did I say that?

- It'll be on your desk
tomorrow morning, I promise.

Okay, bye.
(controllers chattering)

(radar beeping)

I wouldn't squeeze anymore
in there right now, Grizzly.

- If you say so, but when
I see unused airspace

like this, it breaks my heart.

Heard from Jack?
- No, not yet.

There's no phone up in the fishing cabin.

- Administrative leave? He
got a raw deal, Shelley.

Maybe he'll catch some fish, at least.

- Hmm, at least.

- Cherokee 1-5 November,
squawk 1370, and ident.

- [Vernon] How come they
call you Beastmaster?

- You see that?
- Yeah.

- Hamster bite.

(Vernon and Beastmaster chuckling)

(controllers chattering)

- Damn.
- You got a problem?

This guy's got a rough
engine, he's gotta land.

- Oh, you got an airport?
- In Ogden.

Man, I do not like to look at this.

- Hey Deparle, take it
easy, you can handle this.

- Look at this, I'm
getting these track jumps.

This computer goes down, the guy's dust.

- Now, don't worry about that.

If the computer goes down,

you've got every plane's
position in your head.

- Okay, sure.
- Okay Deparle, here.

Tell you what you wanna do.

You split the traffic down the middle.

Take these planes 30 to the left,

take these planes 30 to the right.

You can clear a corridor for your pilot.

(tense uneasy music)
(radar beeping)

- Pan Atlantic 302 execute, 030 left.

All traffic north turn 030 right.

Global Air 602, turn to heading 030 right.

All flights south turn 030 left.

(tense dramatic music)

- Good, nothing to it, see?

- Shelley, phone call.
- Oh, thanks.

This is Shelley Lowe.

- Hey.
- Hey honey.

Where are you calling from?
- I'm at the Houston airport.

- What are you doing there?

You're supposed to be
sitting in Galveston Bay

thinking about things.

- Well, I thought about things,

and I just wanna come home
and talk about them, okay?

- Okay, fine.

- I'm having a little trouble here, Shell.

- Jack.
- Shelley.

- [Announcer] Arriving
passengers gate four.

- If you weren't married to me,

you wouldn't want me on your floor.

You know it and I know it.

- Shelley, emergency weather briefing.

- Jack, something's just
come up, I gotta go.

When are you coming in?

- Ah, I should be in tonight.

I'm gonna hitch a ride in the cockpit.

- Okay listen, we're gonna
talk this through, okay?

- Sure.
- Shelley,

I don't want to interrupt,
but we need you right away.

- Okay, I'm coming.

I really have to go sweetheart.

Give Beastmaster your flight information,

I'll meet your plane, and I love you.

- I love you too.

- Beastmaster, take this please.

- Hey Jack.
- Hey Beastmaster.

Ah, I'll be coming in on
Longhorn flight 1602, 8:00 PM.

- Okay, I got it.

I'll see you when you get back, bye.

(controllers chattering)

(rain splashing)
(soft uneasy music)

(dramatic uneasy music)

- [Announcer] Longhorn flight
1602, now boarding gate 22.

(passengers chattering)

- I'm sorry sir, but regulations allow

only two carry-ons per passenger.

You're gonna have to check this.

- Yeah, I'm sure you can
find some place for it, huh?

- Even if I could, the regulations state-

- Look, I don't have time to sit around

Salt Lake airport tonight,
waiting for my luggage to arrive.

I, I have a very important
breakfast meeting at 6:00,

then I gotta give a talk over 400 people-

- Sir I'm sorry. It has to be checked.

- All right, could you
at least put it on last,

so that it'll come off first,
so I don't have to spend

the best years of my life
at the baggage carousel?

- I'll see what I can do.
- Thank you.

- Hydraulics.
- Check.

- Boost.
- Check.

- Circuit breakers.
- One, three, five,

seven, nine, check.

- Flap emergency override.
- On.

- We've got a guest today, guys.

- Hey.
- Hello, Jack Lowe.

- Ben Ortiz, Jack, how are you?

- Nice to meet you.
- This is First Officer

Lisa Parmenter.
- Sir.

- Hi, how are you.

Listen, I hope I'm not
getting in your way here.

- No, no, not at all. Have a seat.

You know the drill, right?

No talking under 10,000
feet, or on roll out?

- Yeah, I know the drill.

- Okay.
- Thanks.

- Let me know if you need anything, Jack.

My name's LaVaughn.
- I will LaVaughn, thank you.

- Radio.
- Check.

- Transponder.
- And ah, check.

(passengers chattering)
(phone ringing)

- Could you get a scotch and water please?

- Certainly, give me a second.

- Hey Stuart, listen. I
need your advice, man.

I don't know what to say to this group.

As soon as you can.
- Yes, Mr. Lansing.

- Yeah, I need a speech
by the end of the flight

or I'm in panic mode, okay? Yeah.

- LaVaughn, I'd like you to meet

a young friend of mine,
his name is Justin.

- [LaVaughn] Hi sweetie. Are
you flying by yourself today?

- Yes, ma'am.
- Oh, first class, lucky you.

Come on.

Let's see now, you're
in 3A, it's right here,

next to this nice man.
(Evan grunting)

Can I take your hat, Justin?

- Oh no, I guess I'll just hold it.

- Well, how about something to drink?

- Um, I guess I'll have a soda,

if it's not too much trouble.

- No trouble at all.

- Ah, and what about that scotch?

- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah, go ahead.

- So you work in the tower there, Jack?

- Ah no, I'm in the hole.

- Pretty intense I hear, down there.

- Yeah it's, it's pretty intense,

- Man, it'd give me ulcers
to do that kinda work.

- Well you know you, you get
used to it after a while.

(soft uneasy music)
(planes exploding)

- [Controller] Longhorn flight
1602, clear for takeoff.

Ascend to 0-6000, have a pleasant flight.

(lightning crashing)
(tense uneasy music)

- We've got electrical storms
all through this front,

and as you can see, at
the moment, it's parked

all across the western
half of the country.

- Does it show any signs of dissipating?

- No. If anything, it's getting heavier.

- Well, you've got your work
cut out for you, Shelley.

Whatever you do, I'll back you up.

- Thanks Harriet.

Okay everybody, we're gonna have

a lot of activity out there
today, a lotta jumpy pilots.

We wanna maximize the airspace,

we also wanna keep those planes apart.

I don't want any aluminum showers.

- Shell, Jack's flight
Info's on your desk.

- Thanks, Beastmaster.

(phone ringing)
Shelley Lowe.

Yeah, tell me about it.

This is I think, the worst storm I've seen

in what, five years?

All right, so you guys will let me know

at the first sign of any
ground delays, right?

Thanks.
(tense uneasy music)

- Think we might get to Salt Lake on time?

- Ah, days like this, we usually get

a lot of extra traffic
and weather reroutes.

I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up

in a holding stack for an hour or so.

- Man, I hope nobody back
there's in a big hurry.

- Okay, so far I've got, if Thomas Edison

could come back from the
dead and witness today's

global communications technology-

- Mr. Lansing-
- Okay, hold on.

- Will you be joining us
for dinner this evening?

- Yes sure, what do you got?
- Our choices tonight are,

Remember the Alamo enchiladas,

topped with a mildly
spicy ancho chili sauce,

or our chuck wagon chicken breast,

crusted with native Texas pecans.

- Well, what the hell,
let's Remember the Alamo.

- Are you ready for dinner,
Justin? You like enchiladas?

- Oh, yes ma'am. And I like them-

- Oh dear.
- Oh man.

- It's okay.
- Hold on.

Some kid just spilled soda on my-

- Sorry, here-
- No, it's here.

Could you please just get me outta here?

- I'm sorry, as you can see,
we have a very full flight.

Although I'm sure it's
possible that someone in coach

might change seats with you.

- No thank you, just bring
me a wet towel, please.

- Certainly Mr. Lansing, I'd be happy

to bring you a wet towel.

- Yeah I'm sorry, go on.
(thunder crashing)

- Want some?
- Sure, thanks.

- So you heard about the storm?

- Yeah, a big one.
- Think you can handle it?

- Well, we'll see.

You know, I just bought my son a PC.

You know how much memory
it has? Two gigabytes.

So he's sitting at home
playing Intergalactic Warrior,

and I'm here babysitting this contraption.

You gotta love the old girl, though.

- Well, just don't let
anything happen to her, Will.

She's gotta keep track of
a lotta flights tonight.

- You're a pretty good backup, Shelley.

- You think so?

- Yeah. I've been watching you.

I mean, that brain of yours
must have at least one gigabyte.

- (chuckling) Well do me a favor, Will.

Don't make me have to use it.

- Well, unfortunately I
can't make that promise.

Thanks for the coffee.
- Anytime.

(thunder rumbling)

- Got a pretty good leak
here, JR. Hand me that wrench.

Okay (shouting), hand
me that cap, hurry up.

(tools clanking)
(thunder crashing)

- Hey Jack, can I get you something?

- Yeah, I was hoping for a cup of coffee.

- Cream or sugar?
- Oh no, black is fine.

Thank you. So, busy flight?

- It's full, but everyone's
pretty well behaved,

except for that creep in 3B.

You based in Salt Lake?
- Yeah.

- You and your wife have any kids?

- No, I'm afraid the FAA keeps
us a little busy for that.

Shelley and I, we, we have the same shift

in our radar room, actually same area.

In fact, we just passed
over the front range.

So in a couple of minutes
when Denver hands us off,

we'll be coming into Shelley's airspace.

- Well, that must be a nice feeling.

- Excuse me?

- To know that there's somebody down there

watching out for you.
(alert dinging)

Oh, excuse me. I have to
go check on his majesty.

- That was great, Jack.
(soft poignant music)

(tense uneasy music)

- This is the kinda night I used to love.

Plenty of metal in the
air, lots of action.

- Yeah I like it too,
as long as we don't have

too many nasty surprises.

Yeah, I'm here. Okay, let me have it.

(tense uneasy music)
(electricity sparking)

(radar beeping)
- Computer's down.

- What do you got?
(controllers chattering)

- I mean, really down.

- What the hell's going on here?

All right folks, we're
on battery power now.

Don't worry about it.

The backup generators
will kick in in a second.

- Shell, Shell, the backups failed.

- What?
- I've got my guys

on a sector-to-sector search.
- Well, what about the phones?

- They're still working, for now.

- All right, we've got
a full power outage.

Get on the phones immediately,

and transfer whatever metal
you can to other centers.

I need you to check your flight
scopes very, very carefully.

I want the exact location
of every plane out there.

You got it?
(controllers chattering)

(phone ringing)
This is Shelley Lowe,

area supervisor, salt Lake Center,

advising all loss of radar
and radio communications.

Requesting immediate
transfer of airspace control.

(engine roaring)
(tense uneasy music)

- Yeah, well look, I, I don't know Stu,

I think we're getting nowhere

with this whole Thomas Edison thing.

I mean, no one cares about Thomas Edison.

People care about Bill Gates.

- Justin, would you like another soda?

- Um, no, I guess not.
- Right, exactly, see?

- Just in time.

We're about to turn on the
fasten seat belts sign.

- That's looking pretty grim out there.

- Nothing we can't handle.

Ladies and gentlemen,
this is Captain Ortiz.

There's a bit of weather up ahead

that might cause a small
degree of turbulence.

So just to be on the safe
side, I'd appreciate it

if you remain seated with your
seat belt securely fastened

for the next half hour
or so, thanks very much.

- [Controller] Longhorn Air 1602,

Contact Lake Center 127.85.

- Longhorn 1602 copy, it's 127.85.

Looks like we're in your territory now.

- Approach, we've got a
complete systems failure here.

We're gonna have to hold all departures

until further notice.

Yes, I know there's a
lot of planes out there,

but if we don't have a
complete ground stop right now,

they're gonna be falling outta
the sky in little pieces.

(controllers chattering)
(Deparle gasping)

- Is he all right?
- What happened?

- Deparle.
- He's having a heart attack.

- Oh my God.

I've got a medical emergency
here, possible heart attack.

Beastmaster, pick up those flight strips.

They're all we've got to go on right now.

- Got it.
(Deparle groaning)

- Yeah hi, I'm here.

(tense uneasy music)
(engine roaring)

- Salt Lake Center, this
is Longhorn Air 1602.

Do you copy? Repeat, Salt Lake Center.

This is Longhorn Air
1602, come back Salt Lake.

(radio crackling)
I can't reach them.

- You guys all take your meal break

at the same time there in Salt Lake?

- Yeah, it could be that
the radios went out.

It's happened before.

They, they should come on in a minute.

- I hope so.

Sure like to get permission
to fly over this stuff.

(engine roaring)

- Yeah, yeah, listen Stuart.

No more historical stuff, all right?

I'm more forward-looking,
more new frontiers that go,

we're talking about the millennium here.

(thunder crashing)
(passengers exclaiming)

Stuart, Stuart, hello Stuart, hello.

(phone beeping)

- Don't worry, sweetheart.
It's just a little lightning.

- M-my music's gone.

- I'm sure it'll come
back soon. Try it now.

- O-okay, it's back.

- Would you mind waving your magic wand

and getting my dial tone back?

(phone beeping)
Thanks.

Wait, wait, what's your name?

- LaVaughn.

- LaVaughn, I'm gonna vote
you stewardess of the month.

- They call us flight attendants now.

- PC booboo.
(thunder crashing)

(tense uneasy music)

- How's he doing?

- [Vernon] I don't think he's breathing.

- All right, let's do CPR.
(tense uneasy music)

- Anything?
- No, nothing.

Come on Deparle, come on.

Will somebody go outside
and guide the EMTs in,

so we don't waste any time?

- I'll do it.
- Let's do it again.

(tense uneasy music continues)

(engine roaring)
(objects clattering)

- Are you all right?
(passengers chattering)

- Hey, hey, hey, what about us?

- I'm sorry sir, we have to
discontinue service until after.

(thunder crashing)
(passengers exclaiming)

- Well, with weather like
this, the least you could do

is give us a drink.
- Tell you what,

as soon as we're out of this weather,

I'll bring you a double.
- Deal.

(passengers chattering)

- We're never gonna make it.
- You all right?

(thunder crashing)
(passengers screaming)

(Justin retching)

- Um, do you know what to do with this?

- Well, just give it to me, right?

Sure I got nothing better to do. Oh God.

Well, I gotta hand it to
you, what's your name?

- Justin.
- Justin.

I gotta hand it to you.

At least you didn't throw
up on me this time, huh?

Making progress.

- How can I help you, Mr. Lansing?

- We have a little gift for you.

- You all right Justin?
- Um, yes ma'am.

- I'm on a flight from hell, Stuart.

- [Shelley] Come on
Deparle, hang in there.

- Is he gonna make it?
I don't know.

(phone ringing)
- Will, what's going on?

- The problem started in a junction box.

We're working on it now.

If we're lucky, we'll
have the computer rebooted

in half hour or so.
- Okay, what about the phones?

- Well they're okay for now,

but we're losing battery power fast.

I'll keep you posted.
- Okay.

All right everyone, it looks
like we're in for a long haul.

Does anybody have any route conflicts?

- No conflicts here.
- I'm clear.

- There's nothing we can
do for Deparle right now.

Stay focused, in the
meantime we're in good shape.

Power's gonna come back on.

We have every flight in
our airspace accounted for.

- Salt Lake Center, this
is Longhorn Air 1602.

(radio scratching)
They're still not answering.

- Why don't I try an in-flight phone?

I'll call my wife, find
out what's going on.

- Good idea, if I'm gonna be rerouted,

I'd like to know about
it as soon as possible.

- Excuse me, may I borrow
an in-flight phone?

- Sure, there's one right on the wall.

- Thank you.
(phone beeping)

(thunder crashing)
(controllers chattering)

- Beastmaster, tell me something.

Just before the scope went down,

did you see a target coming
in from south-southeast?

- South-southeast?

Yeah, that part of the sky was clean, why?

- Well I don't know, I
thought I saw something

just for a second.

- Bound to be a ghost image.
- What's going on, guys?

- Vernon here saw a ghost
right before the scopes went.

- I think it might have
been a real target.

- Hey man, no offense,
but it's been a few years

since you spent any real time
on this equipment, all right?

- I know a ghost when
I see one, Beastmaster,

and I've had more on-job
experience than you ever will.

- Hold on guys, if it was a real plane,

it'll be on the strips, right?

- Yeah.
- I'll go double check.

- Great.
(phone ringing)

Shelley Lowe here.
- Shelley, hello?

- Hello, anybody there?

Beastmaster, check the
other phones. Hello?

- They're dead.
- Get Will in here right now.

(Jack sighing)
- Nobody home?

- Ah, something strange is going on.

- Yeah.
- I thought you said

the phones were working.

- We must have had less
battery power than I thought.

But look, we're working
on the reboot right now-

- Just get me in touch
with those planes, Will.

(controllers chattering)

- I couldn't get them,
phones seem to be down.

- Better check with Denver, Lisa.

- Denver Center, this is Longhorn 1602.

We are unable, I repeat, we are unable

to reach Salt Lake Center, please advise.

- [Controller] Longhorn 1602,
Salt Lake's radar and radio

are temporarily down, get you
some new route instructions

as soon as we can.

We're a little backed
up here at the moment.

- Thank you Denver, standing by.

- [Ben] That ever happened
on one of your shifts,

radar and radio both?

- No, it, it happened in Oakland once.

I-I wouldn't worry about it,
they should be online soon.

- [Evan] Listen, now
Stuart, when I get back to-

- Excuse me, miss.
- Are you all right?

(passengers chattering)

- You don't even sleep, you're,

you're a machine, you're awesome.

All right, thanks a lot, I owe you one.

Ah LaVaughn, do you mind? Thanks.

It's quite a hat you got there.

- Oh, yes sir, it's a bull rider.

- Don't tell me you actually ride bulls?

- Oh no, that's just the kinda hat it is.

I ride horses.
- Mm.

Why didn't you ride a
horse to Salt Lake City?

- Oh, 'cause it's too far.
- (chuckling) Yeah.

- You know, I'm gonna see my granddaddy.

He, he raises cutting horses.

- Your granddaddy must be pretty rich

to fly you first class.
- Nah, he's got a lotta miles.

He's platinum.
(Evan chuckling)

(thunder crashing)
(passengers shouting)

(engine roaring)
(wind whooshing)

(thunder crashing)
(crew shouting)

- We're hit.
- Take her out of the door.

- I'm at 35,000 feet.
- Outside, help outside.

- Do you need help, Jack.
- I got it.

- You're okay.
- You all right?

- Yeah.
- Jack, you all right?

- Uh-huh.
(thunder crashing)

(passengers exclaiming)
- It's okay, it's all right.

We're gonna be fine, okay?

- Miss, I've been sick-
- It's all right,

it's all right, it's
okay, everything's fine.

Everything's fine.
(passengers screaming)

It's okay, everything's fine.

Keep your seat belts fastened, please.

Stay in your seat, it's fine.

(thunder crashing)
(passengers exclaiming)

It's all right, it's all right.

(tense uneasy music)

- [Ben] Ladies and gentlemen,

this is Captain Ortiz speaking.

We have been struck by lightning,

and seem to have lost a good
deal of our electrical power.

But I wanna reassure you
that the aircraft itself

is completely stable, and we'll have you

safely on the ground in no time at all.

- May I have your attention, please?

I know we're all a bit shaken up,

but everything is going to be just fine.

I'd like to ask all of you
to please remain seated

with your seat belts
firmly fastened, thank you.

- LaVaughn, I think you
better take a look at this.

(fire whooshing)
- Oh my God.

(fire whooshing)
- It's like on fire, man.

(passengers exclaiming)

(tense uneasy music)

(controllers chattering)
- Oh God.

(tense dramatic music)

- There's a fire on the starboard wing.

- I know, we've lost the outer wing panel

and we're venting fuel, fire model one.

(fire whooshing)
(tense uneasy music)

- Still burning.
- Fire the second model.

(fire whooshing)

(tense uneasy music continues)

- It's out.
- Yeah, for now.

It could reignite. Any
luck with Salt Lake?

- No, I can't raise them.

The lightning wiped out our radios.

- Check the transponder.
- Fried.

- Damn.
- Wait a minute.

You're telling me we lost our
radios and transponder both?

- Afraid so.

- Then we're flying blind.

(lighting crashing)
(tense uneasy music)

(controllers chattering)

- This is the best we can do
until the phones come back.

- No, this is fine, thanks.
- Okay.

(phone beeping)
- I found this on the floor.

Denver had probably just begun the handoff

when the computer went down.

- It shouldn't be that big of a problem.

They probably still have them on radar.

(phone beeping)

Yes hi, this is Shelley
Lowe from Salt Lake Center.

I need all the information you have

on Longhorn Air Flight 1602.

What? Well when?

All right, could you give me your,

their last heading and altitude?

Yeah, I hope so too.

Denver lost all contact with that flight,

which means that we've
got a plane out here,

and we have no idea where it is. (sighing)

(thunder crashing)
- LaVaughn,

you better go talk to
the passengers again.

They're bound to have seen the fire.

Okay Jack, I'm ready for
some expert advice here.

- Okay, chances are Salt
Lake is back online.

If they have their radar,
we'll still show up as,

as a primary target.

- But we don't have a transponder,

and without that signal they won't be able

to tell our exact
position or our altitude.

- We've had transponders go out before.

In that situation, we expect the pilots

to follow the original flight
plan, so hold your course.

- Yeah, well there's a problem with that.

We're losing fuel like crazy,
the weather's beating us up.

(thunder crashing)

- All right, stay on
course as long as you can.

- Altitude 24,000, air speed 460.

That's the last we know about them.

- Well, if they stick to
their original flight plan,

we shouldn't be in any trouble.

- Yeah, but why did
their transponder go out?

I mean, what the hell
is going on up there?

- We're back in business.

(controllers cheering and chattering)

- [Vernon] What the hell's going on here?

- I don't know, but I'm gonna find out.

Vernon, check the board.
Will, get me Will.

(lightning crashing)
(passengers exclaiming)

- May I have your attention please?

Captain Ortiz has asked me to emphasize

that there is no longer
a threat to the aircraft.

There's no reason that we
shouldn't have you on the ground

in Salt Lake within an hour.

So please. Until then, all of
you continue to remain seated

and keep your seat belts
firmly fastened, thank you.

- Nice performance.

- I am through babysitting you,
you arrogant little weasel.

(Evan scoffing)

How are you Justin, you okay?

- Um, I'm kinda scared.

- Well, don't you worry.

This man right here is
gonna take care of you.

- I am wasting my time
with this thing, aren't I?

- Yeah, all the in-flight phones are dead.

Someone probably has a cell phone.

- No, won't work at this altitude.

- I think I might be able to help you.

- How's that?
- I have a satellite phone.

- You what? I need to borrow it right now.

- I wish it was that
simple, it's in my suitcase.

I had to check it. Regulations, you know.

- Can we get it?
- I can try.

What does it look like?

- It's a tan leather suitcase.

It says Evan Lansing on the tag.

- We've gotta have that phone.
- You'll need this.

- Thanks.
- My pleasure.

- All right, what is your satellite range?

I'll need a code and base, won't I?

- What the hell is going on, Will?

- Generator surge, circuit failed.

- Well, what are you gonna do about it?

- We're gonna try and reroute the circuit.

- Well, how long is this gonna take?

- 20 minutes.

- We don't have 20 minutes, Will.

- Oh okay Shelley, since you're
such a preferred customer,

I'll just hurry it up a little bit.

- All right, I'm sorry.
Just do what you can, okay?

- It's okay, I'm a little tense too.

(passengers chattering)
- It might turn upside down.

(tense uneasy music)

- This is no good, if I turn south now,

I can head toward Albuquerque.

- No, no, no, it's better to stay

with the original flight plan.

There's, there's too much traffic

in the south this time of night.

- Yeah, but the weather might be better.

We're getting low on fuel,
trying to fight this turbulence.

- You're still better off
heading for Salt Lake.

Shelley's gonna be clearing
out airspace for us.

If you go in any other direction, it's,

it's gonna be like
playing Russian roulette.

(thunder crashing)
(tense uneasy music)

(LaVaughn groaning)

- What if it catches fire again?

- Couldn't happen. Hey,
you want some my peanuts?

- No sir.

- You always call everyone sir and ma'am?

- Yes sir.

- I think ah, we've looked at
that long enough, don't you?

(passengers chattering)

(engine roaring)
(tense uneasy music)

You know what that is right there?

- A UFO?
- No, that's a satellite.

Do you know how many of
these my company's gonna have

in geosynchronous orbit
by this time next year?

- No sir.
- 110.

Justin, I'm telling you
by this time next year,

with those satellites up
there, there's not a place

in the world you can't
make a phone call from.

Imagine you're in a submarine

at the bottom of the Mariana's Trench,

and you suddenly remember it's
your grandfather's birthday.

All you do, get on the
phone, you give him a call.

(thunder crashing)
(passengers shouting)

(cart crashing)
(LaVaughn groaning)

- You all right?

- I feel like we hit something.

- Look outside, what do you see?

- Everything's where it should be.

- What the hell is going on?

- I don't know, maybe it was a-

(thunder crashing)
(LaVaughn screaming)

(lightning crashing)
(passengers shouting)

- We're gonna crash. I don't wanna crash.

- No we're not, okay?
- Yes we are.

- Listen, what do you know about it?

You an aerospace engineer, huh?

- No sir.
- Okay.

Well, let me tell you
something, I fly a lot.

We're gonna be okay.

Well, let's talk about something else.

You have your own horse?
Well what's his name?

- Um, she's a mare,
her name's Blue Bonnet.

- Okay, well tell me about Blue Bonnet.

Tell me about her withers or
fetlocks or something, okay?

- What the hell is going on? Think.

- Oh, maybe it was an air pocket.

- Might be an air pocket
that big out there,

but not two in a row.

- They're wakes.
- What?

- What?
- The wakes,

from other planes.

Get us outta here right now,

we're in the middle of a holding stack.

(thunder crashing)

- Call Ogden and Provo as well.

I want a full ground stop at
every airport in the region.

Yes, all right, get back to
me somehow as soon as you can.

- We've got computers.
- Good, good, good.

(controllers chattering)
- All right.

let's just hope they stay up this time.

Where's 1602?
- Right there.

All I'm getting is a blip.

Their transponder must still
be out. There's no text at all.

- All right, well let's just, oh.

- Tell me we're not seeing this, okay?

(phone beeping)
(tense uneasy music)

- I need an immediate alert

to every aircraft in the vicinity.

I've got a blind airliner flying

through the holding stack at Salt Lake.

Altitude and airspeed
unknown, current heading 040.

Get that out instantly, please.

Grizzly, Vernon, alert those other planes.

Beastmaster, keep your
screen locked on this sector.

- What's going on with this guy, Shelley?

- I don't know, all I know is,

he's on a collision course
with 20 other planes.

(thunder crashing)

- No, we must have wandered
off course somehow.

- I think the lightning knocked out

our navigation system, we're not getting

accurate heading information.

- Yeah, well you gotta
get us outta here fast.

- All right, where do I go?

- Okay, we usually build a holding stack

45 miles southeast of the airport.

45 times two, okay.

Can you still get a reliable
heading from your compass?

- I think so.

- I want you to turn to the
right 30 degrees, right now.

- Turning 30 right, how's our fuel?

- Not good.
(controllers chattering)

- [Beastmaster] He must have
figured out where he is.

He's getting out of there.

- The question is,
where's he gonna go next?

- My money's on runway 1-6 right.

- I hope you're wrong, at this
moment that would take them

right through a military
departure quarter.

(soft uneasy music)
(radar beeping)

(thunder crashing)
(LaVaughn groaning)

(tense uneasy music)

- So what'd you do about
Blue Bonnet's chipped hoof?

- We put some wet burlap on it.

- Uh-huh, and did that cure it up okay?

- Yes sir, it did.
- Well, I'm glad to hear it.

(tires splashing)

- All right, this is what we
do. We cut out the scene where,

where the little girl
morphs into the alien.

- [Janet] Cut the morph?
You can't cut the morph.

- Why not?
- Because the little girl

is the whole reason Terra
Nova gets on the spaceship.

Without her, what's his motivation?

- Janet, Janet, Janet.

I am $20 million over budget
on this movie, all right?

Call that writer in the morning.

Have him come up with a,
what'd you call it, motivation?

That doesn't involve
special effects, all right?

You ready to fly?

- Don't you think we oughta
wait for the weather to clear?

- Well, that's why I bought the plane,

so we don't have to wait.

- I don't care if you have the authority

to order a ground stop or not, Major.

If you don't do it in
the next five minutes,

one of your F-16s is gonna
have a head-on collision

with a civilian airliner.
- Shell, he's turning.

I don't get it, why is this guy

turning away from our main runway?

There's no way he could have known

he was traveling through
an Air Force corridor.

- It's like he's got one of
us in the cockpit with him.

(tense uneasy music)
(radar beeping)

- Longhorn 1602, oh my God.

- What's the matter?

- Jack's on that plane. Oh God.

- Okay, this baby will hold together

another 15 minutes or so.

I think I can get us down,
we're heading straight in.

- Straight in, what runway?

- 1-6 right, that's where
they usually put us.

- No, that's no good.

That's gonna take you straight through

an Air Force departure corridor.

- I am practically
running out of fuel here,

and these controls are getting
sloppier by the minute.

We just gotta hope you're wrong.

- I'm not wrong.

- Well, I'm the captain of this aircraft-

- And I'm air traffic
controller, and I am telling you,

I have a picture of this
airspace in my head,

and if you keep going in this direction,

you are gonna commit suicide.

- There's something wrong with the plane.

Something worse than the
transponder being out.

- How do you know?
- Because Jack would've stuck

to the original flight plan.

There's some reason why he can't.

Grizzly, get on that cell
phone, alert the tower

we've got a crippled plane, we don't know

where it's gonna land.
- Got it.

- Shelley, we've got to have a plan.

There's lots of traffic still up there.

We've got to figure out what
Jack's going to do next,

so that we can clear a path for him.

- I am trying to think of a plan, Vernon.

Don't you think I'm trying to do that?

It's just a little
personal, okay? (crying)

- Use your radar, Shelley.
- God.

- What's Jack's next move going to be?

(soft uneasy music)
(radar beeping)

(controllers chattering)

(thunder crashing)
(LaVaughn shouting)

(tense uneasy music)
(LaVaughn groaning)

- He's going to runway 3-5.
- Runway 3-5?

It's closed, it's under construction.

- Not tonight, that crew
doesn't work in the rain,

and Jack knows that.

He also knows that nobody's gonna be

taking off or landing from there.

Grizzly, get on the phone to Denver.

Have them alert every plane in the sector,

I want a 10-mile lane on
either side of that heading,

I don't care what altitude.

Nobody gets in that corridor, understand?

Nobody.
- Right.

(radar beeping)

- You're right Shell, they just turned

and they're headed in that direction.

(radar beeping)
(controllers chattering)

- Have you ever flown in
this sort of weather before?

(thunder crashing)

- What are you so worried about, Janet?

- Oh, I just think if
we wait a little while,

we'll have a, a better, you know-

- Janet, Janet, Janet, Janet.

I gotta be in New York
first thing in the morning

in front of a room full of suits,

who wanna take me off this picture.

If it's all right with you,
I would like to get there

in time to get a decent
night's sleep, you know?

Besides, this stuff is thin, you know?

As soon as we punch through
the clouds, it'll disappear,

most likely.
(thunder crashing)

- But don't you have to
call the tower or somebody?

- Oh no, no, there's no tower.

It's an uncontrolled airport.
- Oh.

- Janet baby, don't worry about it.

Just sit back, relax,
enjoy the flight, okay?

(engine roaring)

- Uh-oh.
- What is it?

- [Beastmaster] This
guy must have taken off

from some uncontrolled airport.

- [Shelley] We've gotta know his altitude.

- He hasn't turned his transponder on yet,

and until he does, we
won't know how high he is.

All we know is, is he's
headed right for them.

(tense uneasy music)
(radar beeping)

- Turn on your transponder.
- Come on.

- Dammit, turn it on.
(radar beeping)

Come on.
- What is he doing up there?

(fire whooshing)
(passengers exclaiming)

- It's gonna blow up.
- Now, now,

don't be ridiculous, Justin.

They'll put it back out again, okay?

- It is, the wing's on
fire, it's gonna blow up.

- Listen to me, Justin.

Okay, even if it blows up
and the wing comes off,

it's no big deal, I-I'm serious.

Because these pilots are trained

for all sorts of emergencies.

They spend hours and hours in simulators.

Comes to it they, they can
fly one of these babies

with just one wing.

- They can?
- Yeah, sure they can.

Listen Justin, you are
safer up here on this plane

than you are down there on that horse.

I mean, old Blue Bonnet hits
one of those prairie dog holes

and you end up breaking your neck, right?

End of story. Just close this window.

All right, it's gonna be okay.

- Oh yeah, okay, okay. There it is, okay.

Yes, okay, oh, yes.

(radar beeping)
- Come on.

(tense uneasy music)

- Come on, what's this guy doing up there?

(fire whooshing)

- I'm gonna put us in a dive.
Maybe it'll blow it out.

- Better make it shallow.

We pick up too much
speed, we're just gonna-

(fire whooshing)
(passengers screaming)

(tense dramatic music)
(passengers chattering)

It looks like we lost about eight feet

of our starboard wing.

- Can't keep in the air.
- Hang on.

I will find a way to
get us down, all right?

(tense dramatic music)

(thunder rumbling)

- Pick up your phones, pick
up your radios, they're back.

- Hey.
- Listen everybody,

we still have a critical
situation up there, concentrate.

(controllers chattering)
(radar beeping)

(engine roaring)

- Hey come on, look.

Weather like this is why we've got

all these instruments and dials and-

- Oh.
- Oh wow.

See, that one should be on.

- Uh-oh, great.
(pilot laughing)

- He turned his transponder
around, we got him.

Altitude 10,000.

- See if he's on your frequency, hurry.

- Oh hey, here's that demo from the guy

that's been calling me,
tell me what you think.

- Aircraft, 10 miles
southwest of Salt Lake.

Climbing through 10,000,
traffic 12:00, acknowledge.

- What do you think? I-I
like it, it's a little sappy,

but I like it.
- Aircraft, 10 miles

southwest of Salt Lake, acknowledge.

Aircraft, 10 miles southwest of Salt Lake.

Traffic is at your 12:00,
eight miles opposite direction.

An emergency airline, altitude unknown.

(Beastmaster drowned out by music)

Just making a right turn, heading 0-5-0.

Something's wrong, this
guy's tuned out up there.

All I can hear is music.

It sounds like some movie soundtrack.

- Oh, oh, right here.
- Aircraft, southwest-

- I wanna use this for the-
- of Salt Lake airport-

- The part where Terra Nova
first meets the Overlord,

what do you think?

(machinery whirring)

- The landing gear is down.

At least that's one thing

we don't have to worry about.

- Yeah, it's our lucky day, all right.

- Oh, hey!

- Come on buddy, stop crying, okay?

I'm not gonna let anything
happen to you, I promise.

- Don't let go of me.

- I'm not gonna let you outta my sight,

until I get you to your granddad, okay?

How's that?
- Hey, does anyone hear me?

I need help, hey.
- What's that?

- I don't know.

You hold on here, okay, I'll
be right back, all right?

I'm gonna be right back.
(thunder crashing)

(cart clattering)

You found it.
- Yeah.

(thunder crashing)

Here, here.

- Aircraft, southwest
of Salt Lake airport.

This is Salt Lake Center,
how do you hear, over?

How do you hear, over?
(radar buzzing)

Man, this is bad.

(phone ringing)
- Shelley Lowe.

- Shelley.
- Jack!

Jack, what's your altitude?
- What's our altitude?

- 10,000.
- 10,000.

- Jack, descend immediately, descend now.

- Take her down, right now.
(plane whooshing)

- Watch out!
(planes whooshing)

(passengers screaming)
(plane whooshing)

- Jack, are you there? Are you all right?

- Shelley.
- Oh thank God, thank God.

- I'm not sure they can land this.

- Sure they can.

- I love you.
- I love you.

You just hold on, okay?
- Okay, I will.

- Take over, Vernon.
- Not a problem.

Okay folks, resuming crisis mode.

Focus, concentrate.
- We're on it.

- Let's bring this man home.
(controllers chattering)

- How you doing, you okay?

- I'm fine, just a little shook up.

A bit of a mess.

- Yeah? Well, I'm glad you're all right.

You should get yourself strapped in.

- What about the passengers?

- It's all right, I'll check them.

- Hurry, I'm about to put this thing down.

- Okay, let's go, ready?
- Okay.

(soft uneasy music)
(Shelley gasping)

(passengers shouting)

- We may have a rough landing.

Please make sure your
seat belts are fastened.

Lean forward in your seats,

cradling your head with your arms.

- I know you're scared
everybody, but try not to panic.

Make sure everybody's buckled
in tight, check your friends.

- Is LaVaughn okay?

- Yeah, she's all right. She
got a little tossed around,

but she'll be fine, okay?
- All right.

- Hey, ready for a
rollercoaster ride, buddy?

- Kinda scared.

- It'll be fine Justin, all
right? Squeeze tight on my hand.

I mean, how bad could it be, right?

- [Jack] Let's get your
heads down, please.

- [Evan] I'm not gonna let
anything bad happen to you.

(tense uneasy music)

- I think all the construction
is on the left side.

Try to stay to your
right as much as you can.

- I'll try, the way this
thing's fighting me,

I'll be lucky if we hit the runway at all.

(fire whooshing)
(tense uneasy music)

(sirens wailing)

(tense uneasy music continues)

- Looks like they're ready for us.

(plane whooshing)
(wheels scraping)

(passengers screaming)

- Keep to the right.
- I can't.

(wheels scraping)
We're hydroplaning.

(passengers screaming)
(metal crunching)

(wheels scraping)
(passengers shouting)

(plane roaring)
(crew groaning)

(sirens wailing)

- [Crew] Folks, everything is just fine.

- [Crew] Please take your shoes off

before going down the chute.

- Keep going.
- It's all right.

It's gonna be okay.

It's all right, it's gonna be okay.

(crew shouting)
(sirens wailing)

- [Crew] What's up, need some help?

- [Crew] We're dealing with a bad engine.

Work it, work it.
- Port side, port side.

(passengers chattering)
- All right,

just keep going, before
you get down the chute,

take your shoes off before you go down.

It's all right,
everything's gonna be fine.

Everyone just calm down.

- [Crew] We need more
pressure on that line.

(crew chattering)

- All right, open up.
- Let's go, let's go.

You got it, open her up there.

(passengers chattering)
(crew chattering)

- It's okay.
(crew chattering)

Just keep on going, it's fine.

Please take your shoes off
on the way on the chute.

(sirens wailing)
- Come on, let's go.

- Come on in.
- Who's next?

- Let's go, let's go.
- Good job.

Walk away from the chute, thank you.

- Let's go, let's go.
(crew chattering)

(water spraying)
- Go, go, let's go, let's go.

- Let's go, let's go.
- Come on, come on,

it's your turn, go.
- Don't wait, let's go.

- Ma'am, step away.
- You'll be fine.

- It's okay, you're gonna be fine.

- Keep moving.
- Keep moving, keep moving.

- Let's go, let's go.
- Move, move, move.

- Come on.
- Where's my hat?

- It'll turn up, ready?
- Who's next, let's go.

- That-a-way, cowboy.
- Step away.

(passengers and crew chattering)

- Keep it under control.
- Yeah, keep it steady all,

keep it steady.
(crew chattering)

- Okay, let's go.

Jack, go.
- After you.

- Then follow me down.
(crew chattering)

Justin, you don't wanna leave this behind.

- Thanks.
- See buddy,

I told you it'd show up, huh?

Well I, I've got to take
him back to his grandfather.

- Actually that's my job, but
you're welcome to join me.

- Okay.
(soft poignant music)

(crew chattering)

(Jack grunting)

(soft gentle music)

- [Crew] Folks, we've got a van.

If you come right this way,
it'll take you to the terminal.

(soft gentle music continues)

(Shelley crying)

- I bet you're anxious to know

if I caught a red fish, aren't you?

- I was so worried about you. (crying)

- Yeah? Yeah, me too. (laughing)

- I want you to come back.
- You got me back.

- No, I want you to come back to my floor.

Tell me you will.

- We'll talk about it in Borneo.

(soft gentle music continues)

- [Shelley] How are we getting to Borneo?

- [Jack] How about a really slow boat?

(soft thoughtful music)

(soft thoughtful music continues)

(bright soaring music)

(bright ambient music)
