Air Force One movie plot
Air Force One quotes
-
General Northwood: Moscow police found six members of a Russian TV news crew murdered. The same crew that was cleared to fly on Air Force One.
White House Aide Thomas Lee: Jesus.
Vice President Kathryn Bennett: Oh, please tell me it's not that easy.
White House Aide Thomas Lee: No. You would have to generate fake ID, photo, fingerprints.
General Northwood: Could be with a little help from Moscow.
Vice President Kathryn Bennett: How would they get the weapons on board the plane?
Defense Secretary Walter Dean: There's no way to get weapons aboard Air Force One. It's impossible.
Vice President Kathryn Bennett: Well, there are enough weapons already on board to take Panama, but who has access to them?
Defense Secretary Walter Dean: You think someone on the plane helped them?
Vice President Kathryn Bennett: What if somebody did and they're still on the plane? Who do they trust up there? Who do we trust?

Defense Secretary Walter Dean: We found the escape pod. It's empty.
Vice President Kathryn Bennett: So where's the president?
Defense Secretary Walter Dean: I think we have to acknowledge the possibility that the president may be dead.
White House Aide Thomas Lee: Why wouldn't they tell us?
Defense Secretary Walter Dean: Diversion. Try to buy some time. It could've happened in a crossfire, and they're afraid we'll retaliate.
General Northwood: Damn right we'll retaliate. We'll release General Radek into the god damn atmosphere.
Vice President Kathryn Bennett: It doesn't add up. That terrorist knew that we'd recover the pod in short order. He expected that we'd be talking to Marshall.
White House General: Let's not bury him yet. He could still be alive on that plane. Let's not forget this president is a Medal of Honor winner. In Vietnam, he flew more helicopter rescue missions than any man in my command. He knows how to fight.
Vice President Kathryn Bennett: Then he's taking a terrible chance with his life.
White House General: The element of surprise is a formidable advantage in combat. If he's up there, he's the best chance that we have.
Vice President Kathryn Bennett: That pod was designed for a reason, General. He has no right to take chances with his life.
