Airplane vs Volcano

Sensor buried. Stand by for incoming readings.

It's beautiful Lisa.

Is beautiful even in your vocabulary?

Seism-sensor readings are coming in now.

We're definitely getting some activity,

but Joseph, how is it possible... Ka'ula hasn't shown

volcanic activity in five million years.

How is this possible so far from the hotspot?

Joseph?

Joseph?

Lisa, I think a submerged volcanic shelf has surfaced.

There are new islands out here.

When does Landon arrive?

He's flying in soon.

We'll need his help running some tests.

Lisa I got tremors here!

Joseph it's right on top of you!

GO! NOW!

Lisa!

Joseph?

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Captain has turned on the fasten seat belt sign

as we make our descent to Kaua'I. Please put your tray

tables and seats in their upright and full position.

Excuse me. Oh!

Um, I'm so sorry sir. We're preparing to land. Do you mind

bringing your seat forward and putting your tray table up.

Thank you. I'll take this.

How could you sleep through this noise?

Practice.

Don't you know it isn't polite to stare?

Tony! Sit down.

Please. I'm sorry about that.

It's alright. No harm.

Hank right?

You look like a Hank.

Actually is uh...

it's Jim.

Jim Kirkland.

Jennifer.

And you've already met Tony.

Yeah.

How long have you been married?

Oh. We're not yet.

I just like to wear it.

Feel like we are anyway.

I took time my auto body shop to meet her for a little pre-wedding vacation.

That's nice. You've know each other a long time then?

Six months.

I know it's a little crazy...

There's nothing crazy about it. If you don't know it within the

first month that she's the one then you'll never know.

Control, this is 7389.

We may be experiencing some technical difficulties,

as our radar shows we're closing in on what seems to be a heavy storm cloud...

but our reports show very little turbulence. Can you confirm?

Control, can you confirm?

Radio is malfunctioning.

Control this is 7389 do you copy?

Guess we missed it.

Sir.

Oh. Great um...

My Wi-Fi is acting a little janky. Would you mind checking it out? See it they can fix it?

No I'm sorry. You actually have to turn it off and put your tray up for landing.

Oh. Sorry.

It's ok.

Can I take that for you?

Sure thanks.

No problem.

Here.

Please, do you have any aspirin?

No. I'm sorry sir we're out.

Oh god... my head. I hate flying!

My apologies. It's the altitude.

We will be descending soon.

Control?

Captain.

Radio's down.

Down?

That's not what scares me.

What's that?

How long it's been down.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are experiencing some light... turbulence.

It's ok. It's just an air pocket.

That wasn't an air pocket.

That's not the runway. Where are we?

Our compass is wrong. There must be some magnetic interference out there.

Loss of altitude control. The auto-pilot isn't compensating.

Hold on Spair.

Damn auto-pilot thinks we're descending on course.

Hey, could you lean back?

What the hell is that?

It's ash.

Auto-Pilot disabled

Now when I tell you...

I need you to lay down the throttle.

On when I tell you!

I hear ya Captain.

Spair, maximum velocity!

- Come on. - I'm pushing her.

Come on!

Holly Sh-

I can't breathe!

EVERYONE HANG ON!

Listen-

Look out!

I see it!

I need you to be on the radio.

Auto-Pilot Engaged

Is everything ok?

Dan!

The code! The code!

For the auto-pilot?

Zero...

Dan!

Zero, Nine...

Dan. Dan!

Dan what is the passcode?

Dan what is the passcode?!

Dan!

Dan come on...

Hey is everything alright?

He-he's not breathing.

Can you help me out-

Oh he's gone.

Ok it's on auto-pilot.

Um Rita?

Yes.

Rita, get on the radio right there and get a hold of anybody. Anybody at all.

My name is Rick Pierce. Do it! Just do it!

Hello?

Can anybody here me?

Hello?

Please help.

It's out.

Ok yeah. We've been hit.

You can fly?

Wait one second. I'll be right back.

- You, what's your name? - Me?

- Frank. -Frank come here. - I need your help please.

United States Air Marshall Kirkland.

You mind telling me what's going on?

Yeah someone's hurt upfront.

Are they dead?

Unconscious.

That's all anybody needs to know right now.

We need the pilot out of his seat.

You ok?

Don't touch me.

I'm sorry. I just thought you were hurt.

You sure you're gonna be-

No.

Well not yet.

He's not really unconscious is he?

He's dead.

Don't let the passengers see these guys like that.

Gotta get the co-pilot out too.

Ok. You got it. I'll keep it quiet.

What's going on?

It's alright.

Kirkland: OK, everybody. I'm Air Marshall Jim Kirkland.

The pilot is knocked unconscious but,

everything's ok... If there's anybody able to give us a hand

with medical training please help each other out...

That's a volcano!

Hey... I need to know what you know. I can help.

Show'em.

Oh my god.

You ever fly anything this big?

No, the largest I've ever flow is a king air.

9 seater.

Great.

It's stuck on auto-pilot in a constant loop.

Yeah to prevent terrorist takeovers they installed an encoded auto-pilot system.

And of course he knew all the codes.

No Mr. Spair knew them too.

Great.

I study volcanoes and uh... I doubt this is the worst.

In fact I think she's just waking up.

Keep your distance and don't fly us too close or you'll cook us.

Kirkland: No chance of that cause of the auto-pilot loop, right?

Landon: Hope so...

Can you move that thing?

There's a little bit of movement in the wheel. I might be able to force it to maneuver.

No chance of flying over that thick ash cloud.

That will destroy our engines.

We're gonna have to ride it out.

Yeah.

And pray we don't get any aftershocks.

Hey Tully! Wait up.

Thatch, what happened to you?

Breakfast in the mess hall happened.

Yeah and what do I say? I said don't eat the gravy.

It's biscuits AND gravy. You can't have one without the other.

Just don't let the old man see you like this.

Look alive Tully! They're calling all hands.

I overheard colonel Rhyker mention a volcanologist.

That doesn't make sense. What does Rhyker want with a volcanologist?

Guess will find out.

Do we have radar reading for 0600?

Not yet.
