I saw a made for tv movie a few years ago (Matt LeBlanc was in it) about an
Air Ambulance that crashes in the mountains (kinda a mini-"Alive" type
thing). I was actually ok with most of the aviation problems. They did
have the obligatory spiraling dive to the ground when one engine quit on
the
twin. But the best (read worst) thing was when a rescue plane was flying
near. One of the characters grabs the ELT (which they correctly
identified
as an ELT). The actor grabs the bright orange REAL ELT and commences to
hold it up to his mouth and say "Come in, Come in, Mayday, Mayday" (or
some
such). At that point I stopped watching....to my wife's chagrin.


A TV movie was on here a couple of a weeks ago called On a wing and a
prayer. It was so bad it made the Airport series look like serious
documentary/drama.
It was so bad as to be indescribable. The theme was ATC but it was absolute
****e.................(goes away shaking his head)...........I cannot
someone allowed it to be made.
