Trivia:
|
- The usual Air Force One is one of two modified Boeing 747-200s. To represent it, the filmmakers rented and repainted a Boeing 747-146, which had originally belonged to Japan Air Lines, from the cargo carrier American International Airways (AIA). The paint job cost $300,000. The 747's pilot, Paul Bishop, also came from AIA. See also the gaffs entry.
- Harrison Ford told Gary Oldman to actually hit him during the filming of the fight scenes.
- 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.
- One day during filming, two F/A-18 fighters appeared and radioed in a surprised report that the plane they'd been asked to identify was Air Force One and there were bullet holes in it. (They were actually decals). The air traffic control center in Los Angeles knew about the filming and was able to set them straight.
- The shot where the 747 swerves on the ground at Ramstein was performed at half speed.
