Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaArvind Swami and Pankaj Kapoor reunites after 32 years since Roja, which was also a movie based on similar plot - an Islamic separatist group (lead by Pankaj Kapoor) kidnapping an Indian army officer (Arvind Swami) in Kashmir while demanding release of their fellow terrorist.
- GoofsThroughout the series, Captain Dev hand-flies the aircraft and makes most of the radio calls, while the first officer and flight engineer rarely speak and often don't seem to be doing anything.
Professional pilots and flight engineers are trained to operate as a team and continuously cross-check each other's actions, and the flight engineer's primary job is to execute checklists. To reduce workload and the chances of making mistakes, it is typical for one pilot to fly the aircraft ("pilot flying") while the other navigates, watches the instruments, and operates the radios and auxiliary systems ("pilot monitoring"), and for the pilots to rely heavily on the autopilot at the top of the instrument panel. (The first officer or copilot is only subservient with respect to decision-making; both pilots know how to operate every system in the cockpit, and the roles switch back and forth freely.) In a real airliner, the pilots would divide the work to a much greater degree, would talk to one another constantly during takeoff and landing, and would frequently use the autopilot, while the flight engineer would be verbally executing checklists and cross-checking various flight instruments and controls.
Featured review
What an epic waste!
There are bad shows and then there are some that just leave you numb..this is that show.
The disjointed scenes and shots, the blue and brown tones and poor camera work are just the beginning. The drama is absolutely flat and dated with so many different different actors, but no one gets enough screen time to make an impact.
I was very excited to see how this talented ensemble cast would be used, but it ended up looking like there was no thought or purpose behind the casting..everyone is wasted.
The biggest problem with this show is the direction, it seems like some amateur who has just passed out of film school has just gone for a thoughtless conversation of the script to the screen...it is extremely embarrassing.
