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)

Trivia: One of the secretaries tells the president she can send a fax to the White House, and he replies something like: "If this works, I'll make you Postmaster General". In the closing credits, she's credited as "Future Postmaster General".
