Other mistake: After the president retakes the plane, the VP sees a red blip on the tracking map and is told it represents MIGs. Then she tells the president they are tracking 6 MIGs. However, the map just showed a single unlabeled red circle to represent the bad guys, and at no point did someone tell her there were exactly 6 MIGs (or, if she knew a squadron was 6, that it was just 1 squadron), which is what it turned out to be. It's not until later that the map has individual icons for each plane involved. (01:43:33)

Directed by: Wolfgang Petersen
Starring: Gary Oldman, Harrison Ford, Glenn Close
President James Marshall: Peace is not just the absence of conflict, but the presence of justice.
Trivia: A little aside - when the terrorists first strike, in amongst the confusion you can hear someone shout "get the football!" The "football" is the name used for the case which contains the nuclear launch codes, but this is never explained. It's not a major thing, but interesting to note that they included it as a little detail. Good to know a childhood spent reading Tom Clancy books wasn't wasted...
Question: When Gary Oldman is on AF1, talking to the vice president for the first time, he says something similar to "How's your blou.." What is he saying? I don't have the DVD, so I don't have subtitles.

Answer: Earlier in the same scene, Oldman says to the VP, "I'm sure you can't wait for him (the President) to get back to making the decisions so you can stop sweating through that silk blouse of yours." As he makes his demands known, he asks her "How's your blouse?" in reference to her perspiration.
