The DUmmies won't go see it, if they do they'll probably think that if the idiot passengers hadn't stormed the cockpit, they would have all been spared...

There is one passenger (swedish accent?) who says that several times throughout the film. By the thrid time he says it you want to punch him in the mouth.

Actually, it used to be airline (and Air Force) policy that part of the flight crew's job in a hijacking was "preventing passenger heroics." I would expect we're past that attitude now. Can't say I ever agreed with it.

Someone told me that he had been involved in a hijacking some years before. It was probably harder for him than anyone else to accept that hijacking no longer meant an inconvenient stop during your trip.

How I was wishing that just one passenger or crew member had a firearm. The terror as well as the bravery of the passengers is palpable.

Sounded Dutch or German but a backhanded slap against the European appeasement mentality.

A Swede, huh? -- Was his name Hans Brix?
