Trivia:
|
- When a dummy was put on the cable, the 747's bow wave blew off its coat and tie. Rather than put the plane's engines at risk, the filmmakers decided to use special effects for all shots of the people on the cable.
- One morning, the frantic activity of taxiing and braking during this period caused the 747's wheels to overheat - triggering a safety device that deflates all the tires rather than risk a blowout.
- The outdoor, nighttime shots of the military invading Radek's palace were filmed at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. The building that is supposed to be Radek's palace is actually Severance Hall. In some shots, you can see part of CWRU's Thwing Student Union behind Severance Hall.
- The cable really was trailed behind the MC-130, but its connection to the 747 was a special effect.
- The interiors for Radek's Palace were filmed inside the County Courthouse in Cleveland, OH. The scene were the U.S. team is running down the stairs in front of the statue is in the lobby. There is also a scene in a narrow hallway that takes place in the Law Library in the same building.
