that yes you do if you want your dad to
live number 10 executive decision oh

Washington DC a US intelligence
consultant must find a way to stop the
plane from landing on American soil
the experts devise a plan to board the
hijackers plane midair essentially
hijacking the hijackers Kirk I know you

the earth to top it off the team has to
detonate a bomb once onboard we got a
chance to shut this thing down take over
the plane we just landed someplace safe
all right gets to play with the bomb
talk about a stressful situation number
nine Air America well then I guess this
old Rob says we’re not here which means
you’re not actually seeing the second
biggest city in Laos a buddy comedy with
a message is the perfect way to describe
this pick Mel Gibson and Robert Downey
jr. played two pilots flying planes for
the mysterious air America company in
Laos during the Vietnam War
pilot hijinks yeah this is psychotic
behavior well here at Air America what’s
considered psychotic behavior anywhere
else is just company policy gene ryuk hi
but the two men find out their planes
are being used to smuggle heroin our
governments running a war with drug
money
and over there across the border in
Vietnam RG ours are getting strung out
on this stuff to avoid being framed they
must find a way to thwart the men behind
the scheme plane crashes and heroic
rescues bring the action there’ll be
another new war opening soon and a
theater near you you can bank on Aysel
promise right out of you guys I heard
that number eight United 93
United 93 Lila SATA go ahead you know
how it ends but you can’t help but be
enthralled by the plight of the United
93 passengers this was the first big
screen attempt to recreate the events of
September 11th 2001 and it strives for
such realism it feels like a
fly-on-the-wall documentary okay
CNN’s reporting light civil aircraft is
just in the world happen over here MCC
MCC CNN has just reported a light
aircraft is hit the World Trade Center
detailing the passengers uprising
against some 9/11 terrorists
United 93 somehow manages to avoid
politics and is instead a suspenseful
thriller but it’s still difficult to
watch
number seven hells angels considered by
critics as one of the first blockbuster
action films with sound this movie’s
production was wrought with
complications which included multiple
pilot deaths budget issues and a lawsuit
but despite this producer Howard Hughes
created a masterpiece that tells the
story of two brothers both combat pilots
in World War one who are in love with
the same girl
has he been probably charming me more
than Jame good for you lovey however the
film’s most iconic scene occurs when the
German Zeppelin bombs London
perfect
just Eric offset algis trail final tier
five six fumbles dick Durbin said fumble
number six Conair ladies and gentlemen
this is your captain speaking
I have the only gun on board welcome to
Conair any movie set on a prison
airplane is a good one in our book after
Cameron Poe is sent to federal prison on
charges of manslaughter he boards the
jailbird as a way to get home to his
family
given the opportunity to escape the
plane’s passengers some of whom are very
dangerous criminals take the plane
hostage making for a thrilling action
flick
and let’s not forget Nicolas Cage’s hair
and accent too good I said put the bunny
back in the box
number five up in the air to know me
used to fly with me this is where I
lived with George Clooney at the helm
this is a film about a corporate fire
whose Jet Set lifestyle keeps him in
flight for most of his time and he’s got
the frequent flyer miles to prove it
ladies and gentlemen we have a special
announcement to make our pilot has just
informed me that we are passing over the
city of Dubuque which it might not mean
much to most of you but means a lot to
one of our fliers today because he just
hit 10 million mild though flight in
this film is used more as a symbol of
Ryan binghams loneliness and lack of
relationships it’s obvious that he’s
more at home in an airport than on his
own couch all the things you probably
hate about traveling recycled air the
artificial lighting the digital juice
dispensers the cheap sushi warm
reminders that I’m home
number 4 Air Force one the president’s
plane Air Force One has been hijacked
after the president’s airplane is
hijacked by Russian terrorists the
President must decide whether to
negotiate or risk his family’s lives his
wife his daughter the man could not live
with himself
thank you haled is one of the best
action films of the 90s
Harrison Ford makes a badass US
president as he fights his kidnappers on
the plane get off my plane the nonstop
action earned the movie two Oscar nods
and two thumbs up from Bill Clinton the
sitting president at the film’s release
with all due respect sir next time you
want to make a major policy departure
you might want to discuss it with your
national security adviser first number
three the aviator I don’t know if you
remember me my name is Howard Hughes
just one in fact that moment your time
Howard Hughes name is synonymous with
airplanes so it’s no surprise this
biopic starring Leonardo DiCaprio did
well at the box office and won five
Academy Awards the film tells the story
of Hughes many business ventures his
obsession with planes and his struggles
with obsessive compulsive disorder he
married me he had to crazy for me
director Martin Scorsese outdid himself
with the film’s replicas of Howard’s
planes but the Spruce Goose his flying
boat was by far the best my idea what
the plays are doing
none of that now number two airplane
this is one of my favorites being a
passenger on a plane can be a crazy
experience but real life isn’t nearly as
zany as this flick high jinks ensue when
the passengers and crew contract a virus
from a parasitic worm where the poison
goes to work on the central nervous
system causing severe muscle spasms
followed by the inevitable drooling wait
at this point the entire digestive
system collapses accompanied by
uncontrollable flatulence until finally
poor bastard is reduced to a quivering
wasted piece of jelly with no one left
to fly the plane it’s up to an
ex-fighter pilot with a paralyzing fear
of flying to get them home safely can
you fly this plane and land it
surely you can’t be serious I am serious
and don’t call me Shirley
