Storyline
| Plot Summary |
The Emergency Code for a plane hijacking is 7500: a tense, intense thriller, told from the cockpit. A flight from Berlin to Paris. Everyday routine in the cockpit of an Airbus A319. Co-pilot Tobias Ellis is preparing the plane for take-off, which then follows without incident. Then we hear shouting in the passenger cabin. A group of young men try and storm the cockpit, among them 18-year old Vedat. A fight begins between crew and attackers, with the desire on the one hand to save individual lives and on the other to avert an even bigger catastrophe. The cockpit door becomes a battleground - and Tobias ends up being the arbiter over life and death. |

Did You Know?
| Trivia | Carlo Kitzlinger, who played the captain of the plane, is actually a real pilot. He flew for Lufthansa Airlines for many years. He assisted Joseph Gordon-Levitt with becoming a pilot for the role. See more » |
| Goofs | The ground operator reports that the zero fuel weight, which is the weight of the plane with no fuel, is 56.8 Tons, while during the departure briefing Tobias states that the total weight is 54.8 Tons. According to the 7.2 Tons of fuel it should have been at least 64.0 Tons. Also during landing the thrust levers are moved manually while the AutoThrust is engaged. Just technicalities, the rest conforms outstandingly to reality. See more » |
