As the airplane is flying, two F-106 are dispatched to follow it, but it flies at Mach 2.

Uh...there is NO WAY the Boeing 727 can break Mach 1, let alone Mach 2.

Unless, of course, it's diving straight down, at full power, from 80 thousand feet...

A Boeing 727 only flies at like 500 mph. If if flew at Mach 1 or 2, the plane would be torn to pieces.
