Moore has never been right on a single issue in any of his films, and he's wrong on this one too.

You're lost in a Hollywood fantasy if you think any air response system could have shot down jet airliners already approaching their targets on a few minutes notice. The real world isn't Hollwood, bozo.

That's funny...they didn't seem to have a problem finding Payne Stewart's plane when it went off course a year or so before.

Why was this time different?

I bet Maverick and Goose could have got 'em (with Iceman on their wing, of course).
