Air Force One Crashes | Air Force One

The Air Force One movie came out in 1997 and is about terrorist taking over the US President's 747. As part of my Hollywood vs Reality I explain what is realistic and not in this movie.

[@apollo21lmp]

@@74gear flares are for heat seeking missiles. for radar directed missiles they would have deployed chaff.

[@nekomatafuyu]

I suppose there's the possibility that the radar lock is from the fighters' targeting suite, and that they then launched heat seekers. I honestly don't know enough though to give anything other than guesswork.

[@TheJohn22227]

Yeah, the radar lock could've just been a general lock, not necessarily missile lock. And chaff usually is deployed at the same time as flares so I guess it could be explained. At the very least it should say countermeasures deployed!

[@RJ-rg2iz]

@@nekomatafuyu You are correct this is entirely possible. The migs radars would show a lock regardless and the pilots would fire an infrared guided missile at this range. So the scene isnt that bad. However, that still raises the issue that the radar warning receiver and countermeasure system used by the US air force would not be able to detect an infrared missile launch automatically like it can a radar guided missile launch, Harrison Ford would need to press a button to deploy flares manually. To this day in most aircraft infrared missile launches are still detected with the mk1 eyeball.

[@ChockHolocaust]

I know it's a movie, so we can for the most part treat it as just a bit of fun, but if we are gonna talk realism, the bit when there are a flight of four MiG-29s (which is quite possibly one of the best and most agile jet fighters of recent times) that are unable to shoot down a big lumbering B747 despite being line astern from the thing at what is pretty much the optimal firing range for both guns and short range IR guided missiles, is preposterous. The MiG-29's internal gun is the GSh-30-1. This is a 30mm auto-cannon with has an effective range of up to 1,800 metres; it fires 1,500 rounds per minute, so just one of those fighters - let alone a flight of four of them - is going to make pretty short work of shooting down a big airliner if it opens up on it with that thing with even a very short burst of gunfire, since it fires about 25 explosive 30mm cannon shells every second; just a couple of hits would probably be fatal for what is essentially a thin-skinned commercial airliner. You would have to be the most inept fighter pilot ever to not be able to hit an airliner with a wingspan of nearly 200 feet, which is in a slow turn a few hundred meters in front of you when firing at it with a gun like that because this is pretty much the ideal set up for an easy guns kill. At that kind of range, the MiGs might use short-range IR-guided (i.e. heat-seeking) missiles to destroy such a target as is shown in the movie, although in fact the MiG-29 can also carry the longer-ranged Vympel R-27, which comes in two flavours; one is a semi-active radar homing variant, the other uses a an infra-red heat seeking sensor, so they could in reality have engaged it from well beyond visual range, but of course that doesn't make for an exciting scene in a movie, so instead the film-makers went for short ranged missiles. On a MiG-29, those short-ranged missiles would either be Vympel R-73s (minimum engagement distance is about 300 metres; maximum firing range is about 4km), or they might more likely be Vympel R-60s for a Soviet client state, as these older missiles are often a bit more likely to be exported. And on the subject of air to air missiles, that's another thing which movies always get completely wrong too: Missiles such as the ones mentioned above do not come off the launch rails of the fighter which is firing them, like they are laser beams - they typically drop considerably before igniting the propellant in order to ensure they clear the aircraft. For example, an AIM-9 Sidewinder missile - which is the western equivalent to those two Russian IR-guided missiles - can drop as much as 100 feet below the aeroplane before it will begin tracking its target. It's worth noting too that missiles such as these do not have a rocket engine which burns throughout the flight; the rocket engine typically burns for only a few seconds to accelerate the missile to speeds of around Mach 2.5, and having reached that speed quickly, the missile effectively 'coasts' its way to the target. So showing such missiles with a glowing tailpipe is incorrect, they most often just leave a big trail of smoke from the still very hot but no longer functioning rocket motor. Fun missile fact: Because the seeker head is constantly scanning to track the target on such IR-guided missiles, the missile tends to make a lot of course corrections, so the smoke trail such missiles leave is often quite serpentine in appearance; this is where the Sidewinder missile gained its name. The worst offender for an appallingly unrealistic depiction of missiles in movies, is however the 2001 film Behind Enemy Lines, where an F/A-18 Super Hornet is depicted being shot down by a Serbian 9M33 missile which apparently has an endless supply of rocket propellant that allows it to make numerous turns so if can have several goes at trying to hit the aircraft. This is absolutely laughable. It is one of numerous factual inaccuracies and laughable mistakes in that movie, which are almost too many in number to list. Incidentally, if you like aeroplane action movies which portray things fairly realistically but which is still fun to watch, look no further than the 1991 movie, Flight of the Intruder, which has a very realistic portrayal of surface to air missiles engaging Grumman A-6 Intruders which are running bombing missions over North Vietnam. It's a great, fun movie if you like a bit of jet aeroplane action.

[@masonichisenga3032]

I like your insight. Thanks for the knowledge shared. Only realized now that they could have shot the plane down with their gun's and Hollywood left that out deliberately.

[@aliahsanabdullah4171]

And if they're missed the 747 they could go for another run. But they seemed to just abandoned it. I mean, they probably still had some rounds inside the GSh-30-1 cannon..

[@troodon1096]

I guess they decided to take some "artistic license" since they needed a scene where Air Force One is in danger of being shot down, but still not get shot down. But yeah, no way they shouldn't have easily been able to do so in the situation depicted.

Behind Enemy Lines has so many mistakes in it. Do not watch it with a pilot and god help you once he lands in the tree. From there on do not watch it at all with a SERE guy.

I looked up the pilot instrumentation panel of AFO during the 90's and pretty much looks like the one shown in the movie. There is a documentary called "Inside AFO" on here filmed by National Geographic during the Bush W administration. Very well done. Check it out. But the turbines on AFO let out an enormous amount of thrust. Thia is not a regular commercial aircaft, its a military aircraft.

Can you please do a Hollywood vs Reality video for 'Airplane!'.

[@flitsertheo]

We all know that movie is 100% realistic and authentic.

[@smokingspitfire1197]

Can't Spork, no point doing a hollywood vs reality for a live feed of a real plane?

[@BrooksMoses]

I expect that would be interesting. I saw a magician doing a very brief Hollywood vs. Reality video for one magic trick that happens in the movie, and they pretty much got it right -- so I would not be surprised if they also did a good job of the parts that they didn't intentionally screw up for comedy.

[@jbrandt7]

I always found it odd that the pilots didn't just do a belly landing at Ramstein - would have prevented the terrorists from being able to take off again, in the event that they got the door open. I know it would have been risky, but probably a risk worth taking.

@@TheJer1963 to add to your comment, it also makes the flight crew look heroic for very nearly thwarting the terrorist plot, and sets a scenario for the capability of the terrorist pilot.

Hey Kelsey, love your channel! I stumbled into your channel a couple weeks back and you never fail to entertain. As I saw that you do a lot of movie reviews, I was wondering if this topic was pertinent. Do you think that the mistakes made in the movies are to protect certain FAA violations, security issues and what not? Like the technical dialogue and such?

[@mcgaggero]

Thank you, Kelsey for this and the others videos: you're funny and informative. Plus, for me it's a great way to improve my English. They rerun this movie yesterday and I was eager to know your opinion about it. I appreciate very much your work because I was a passenger on the 747 many times especially over the Atlantic: now they use mostly Airbuses or 777. Keep up with the good work!

"You can't land on autopilot" Since flying with a keyboard is pretty much impossible for me in the flight sim that I play and it doesn't support autoland, I had to find a creative way of using the AP, (let it go down the glide slope, at the last ~100 feet switch over to alt hold and fiddle with vertical speed), so hold my beer! XD

[@losttownstreet3409]

It's what you should do in a plane: get the plane to 1m to 10m (depending on the type) over the runway and hold the aircraft stable at that altitude without power. It goes down itself if all power is consumed. Airline pilotes lands sometimes "early" with higher speed as they are used to land in bad weather (where normal pilots wouldn't flying) If you are used to "newer" landings you touch down earlier and fly still there is no lift left on the wing (your plane is still partways on the landing gear).

[@Mythoughts62]

One thing about Air Force One that alot of people dont know is that "Air Force One" isnt an individual plane, its a designator. Any plane the president gets on receives the designation "Air Force One." The plane most people think of as Air Force One is just the Presidents normal air transportation.

[@kevinbuja4373]

I have 4 questions. 1) How long did it take you to qualify (or how much seniority) for a 747? 2) What made you or why did you want to fly a 747? 3) I know on a long haul there are bellow decks sleeping areas for the crew. Do you get to use them (I’m think not) if, not, do you and the 1st officer take power naps? 4) Before you could fly a 747, did you have to be a 1st mate first? Thank you.

4:27 no way that bullet produced that much pressure to even move the tiller the slightest bit, but nope. it produced so much pressure to slam the FO into the tiller really hard and AFO literally skrted off the runway. also i want to say, yes a boeing 747 wing would slice branches or maybe even trees. but its not gonna just slice it off like its nothing. its gonna cause some damage to the wing atleast

[@vbscript2]

Agreed. It would definitely take out the tree limbs, regardless of its rounded shape. It's doing more than 100 kt. But there would also be damage to the leading edge (and, assuming they were deployed, which they certainly should have been, the leading edge flaps.)

Air Force One is of course not a typical 747. The instruments are highly unlikely vanilla. The plane has tons of upgrades. The plane is carrying the president of the united states no less, and is designed to stay in the air for weeks if needs be.

[@joelellis7035]

Well, from the opening part of the movie, the spokeswoman for the President was saying during a tour that the hull of the plane could withstand gunfire. So for the sake of the fiction, it was supposed to be okay. Not so much in real life if you consider all the systems running throughout the interior of the ship. Sure one could surmise that the exterior was meant to protect from external threats, but a gunfight on the inside with unprotected systems? Clearly, we weren't supposed to think so hard about these things, let alone a secret service agent in such a place of trust so flippantly betraying his charge.

[@Avio033]

9:00 Yes, he is a pilot in real life, but he also landed his plane on a taxiway instead of a runway, twice. So I like to think that his roll in this movie perfectly reflects his real piloting. "ATC, tell me what knob to twist for the engine to go brrrr"

Burn :P! Although we have to consider that when the film was released, Harrison Ford was younger and had not commited yet any of the aviation incidents he is now famous for.

@10:21, fire is coming out of the bypass air. Fire would be coming out of the rear part of the engine where combustion takes place.
