Diane and Greg Halstead were once happily married, even deciding to try and have a baby in later years, despite the fact that she had already suffered two miscarriages. She has no luck in becoming pregnant and this leads to an estrangement from her husband. On his latest flight, Greg, a professional pilot, finds out about a bomb threat. The person carrying the bomb supposedly wants to kill another passenger, a politician with an outspoken opinion on abortion. Unknown to the killer, however, the politician has already left the plane because it had an hour and a half delay. Greg decides to make an emergency landing in Dayton, Ohio, but during the heavy weather, the plane crashes, killing almost everyone on board.

Best movie ever!

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Blistering performances.

Pretty standard TV film, with a few good points and the crash scenes were well done. It does not always take the predictable route and a few moments are a surprise, which can be good and bad.There are too many characters in it, too many cliched American groups of men, impeding others' work and it is hard to follow who ia trying to achieve what at times.The role of the Senator and the bomb threat seemed to be the main plot then disappeared to nothing, as did the characters. I was never really sure how or why one person survived it. It gradually deteriorated as a film all the way through to the end.

It's a television film with Cheryl Ladd as the pilot's wife. She is happily married but she and her husband want a child. Their only child died as an infant. In this film, her husband and airline pilot are carrying a load of passengers from Washington-Baltimore to Kansas City but something happens. Nobody knows quite for sure about the cause of the accident but the pilot, a passenger, and a golden retriever survive the crash. Diane, Ladd's character, is convinced that her husband shouldn't be blamed for the crash and is determined to set him free regardless of the press, airline, and the authorities seeking somebody to blame and fault for the loss of lives. It's not a bad film but it's not great and Cheryl gives it her all and proves that she's not just another pretty actress.

This film tells the story of the widow of an airline pilot's fight for justice, clearing his name for a fatal air crash. I recently saw this on a True Movies satellite channel. It is not based on a true story. Real life is never this absurd. The central premise of this story is that the civilian airliner crashed because a top secret machine in the cargo hold interfered with the plane's avionics. It is completely unbelievable that the US military would freight a highly secret machine on a commercial airliner and that is would be switched on during the flight. Sorry if I sound like a tech nerd, but plot holes like this seriously detract savvy viewers from the story.

Well worth a glance, if only to see Cheryl Ladd playing something other than a battered homicidal wife, here she plays the opposite, a tough talking, straight forward gutsy women, a pilots wife out to avenge the culprit who secured her husband in a fatal plane crash, the special effects are a little laughable, but ok, and the acting is a bit wooden by the supporting cast, but you can be sure Cheryl can save any film shes starring in, and did this one justice
