    I should have known...

    Once I watched the first 2 minutes of the movie and it was nothing but about 12 different production companies, I knew I was in for a terrible movie. I'm guess they all kicked in $10,000 each. As others have stated, there are huge issues with physics of the aircraft, and the acting is a notch below B movie. The script was highly predictable and fairly boring. Don't waste your time.
