A Presidential candidate running against the Vice-President plans a trip to the Balkans to negotiate the release of American servicemen being held hostage. Before he leaves, he receives a disk documenting evidence that the Vice-President has been trying to revive the American economy by causing a war in the Balkans. He plans to show it to both sides in the hopes of ending the situation. However, Secret Service agents hijack the Concorde he is on and kill the pilots. It's up to an Air Force officer, nicknamed "Washout" because he can't fly a plane, to land the Concorde. Written by Leigh Roche

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Fred Olen Ray shot this in 12 days with a budget that wouldn't cover one Fast & Furious tire. The Concorde interior is famously a reused set from his other films.
Released four months before 9/11, this casual 'hijacked plane as action setpiece' premise hit different immediately after. The film basically vanished into discount bins of history.
