Factual error: When Ray comes out from the basement to survey the damage, he sees a crashed plane. As he walks past the fuselage, there is a square window on the cockpit. Planes don't have square windows because to corners were proven stress points from the explosions of two De Havilland Comets in the early 1950's. After the investigations, all plane windows were deemed to be rounded to prevent another such incident.
