Character mistake: Scott flew to Ireland to look for the missing Fireflash airliner, but when Jeff asks where Scott is, Virgil replies, "His take-off from England was delayed for some reason."
Character mistake: After the first Fireflash crash, search and rescue tasks are unable to find the wreckage, and John in Thunderbird 5 comments that its position was way off what was reported. However, he never bothers to relay this vital information to the London airport overseeing the rescue effort, and IR never bothers to attempt a rescue of a passenger jet filled with civilians, despite showing on the second crash that they were completely capable to saving them. It's then stated that the crash had no survivors, which the viewer has to lay at IR's feet. Even if they were busy with another rescue at the time, notifying the conventional rescue effort of Fireflash's real position could have saved many lives and given the investigation more evidence to find the problem.
