Plane movies that make you scared

Sully had me on the edge of my seat sometimes. And for those who fear plane crashes, just don’t watch Final Destination.

I’ve seen that video. Why didn’t the landing a330 just go around

Cause it’s movie logic.

Aside from Sully, the only reason I ever get scared of a plane movie is because I’m thinking Do people actually believe this is realistic.

It’s gotta be Final Destination for me.

Snakes on plane I hate snakes and I cannot imagine this happening

Everything about that scene in that movie is fake. First off, either A330s should’ve aborted takeoff or gone around, as a pilot you have the right to deny an ATC instruction should you consider it a safety hazard. As an ATC, nobody will ever try to pull thins to the limits. There is always a safety margin ATCs will go through. Now you want a real crash which was similar to this, but with realistic confusion, look up the Tenerife disaster

“Flight” movie used to scare me until I realized how fictional it is.

Sully didnt really scare me, but it came the closest, partly becuais I knew everything I saw was, or was atleast close to real. Also the story telling/film making was on point…

Not quite a movie, but more like a certain youtuber.

Still, in all seriousness, I don’t really have a plane movie that scares me.

Cast Away. The crash scene is so scary because it’s at night and it’s so creepy when the engine explodes and stuff. Also my Dad used to fly the MD11 for FedEx so…

That’s it, that one is kind of freaky

“Non stop” was a pretty scary aviation film as I remember it. It’s been a while since I’ve seen it, however. Now, if I saw it, I probably wouldn’t enjoy it as much as I’d be able to spot all the plot holes, being much more of an avgeek now than I was in the past!

Airplane! and airplane! 2. Planes and it’s sequal had me on edge.
