An islander refers to the slain Calderone as "old man Calderone." Calderone was made up to look like he was in his late forties. The actor who played him ( Miguel Pinero ) was forty years old at the time.
The air traffic controller had to struggle for a moment to remember the altitude of the airstrip; a fixed altitude that was determined when the airstrip was first built.
Is mentioned a few times that Tubbs is the one that killed Calderon. This is inaccurate because it was Sonny Crockett that actually killed Calderon.
