SOLAR FILMS PRESENTS

BASED ON ACTUAL EVENTS

Hi, it's me.

Are you at the airport?

- Yep.

Doesn't sound like it.

- I'm on my way there.

You've done that for 6 hours.

- Just paid a visit a friend.

No, we didn't drink anything.

Just talked about life.

What if I kill myself?

- No, you won't.

You just go to Helsinki.

To start all over again. Right?

Maybe I shouldn't go?

- You have to go.

Stop dreaming.

Yeah, yeah.

Don't yell at me.

I don't like being yelled at.

I want you to go there

and get a job.

I've supported you for a year now.

Shape up.

But I have! I was the number

one salesman for the -

Holiday Magic Cosmetics!

Not many have! Not many can.

I've sold cars, cosmetics...

Is there something I haven't?

I'm working my butt off,

all the time, can't you see?

I know.

I have great plans,

just don't nag at me. Stop nagging!

I have work up to my neck!

- Just get on that plane.

Don't worry about the bankruptcies.

It's one hour flight only.

Start all over again.

You're a grown-up man.

Try to get something done!

THE HIJACK THAT WENT SOUTH

Oulu, Finland.

Friday 24.3.1978.

Do you like kissing?

Well, that depends.

With some, not a chance.

Some just can't get enough. - I see.

Last night one of the kisses

missed the mark.

Right.

When we get to Amsterdam,

we'll eat well and go dancing.

Or we go straight to coffee shop

and then to the hotel.

Or hotel first and

coffee shop then.

Almost an empty plane today.

A routine day, thank God.

Have you noticed the love-bite

on co-pilot's neck?

How can this take so long?

We'll never get there.

And it's so cold, too.

The magic of the North.

I hate the North.

What's the time,

we'll never make the plane.

Why don't you say anything?

Nothing works here!

APU bleed air.

- Set.

Temp control, panel and AC.

- Auto and set.

Is that condition of

yours contagious?

What?

- The blister.

Thank God we were there only

one night. Enough damage now.

Fuel supply, right hand, main.

Start-check completed.

Now we just wait.

What's the meaning of this?

What is so difficult?

Gotta get the bus started...

Hey, pal, don't touch anything.

Don't you know

how to drive a bus?

I don't have time for this.

I have big things going on.

Oh, I see.

I work for the Secret Police

in a smuggling case!

It's only an engine problem...

- This is big!

Get us some

goddamned taxis right now!

Someone get the taxi!

We're freezing here!

Right away. Calm down...

- You just shut up!

This is an international crowd here.

Is this as far as we're getting?

Hey, Eurovision contestants

should be going first!

Do something.

We're left behind!

Her voice is her instrument!

Old people are getting on.

Why don't you stand up for us?

Who'll compensate for the damages?

You?

Quite a night at the local.

A hot chick asked me

if I'm an aviator.

I said I'm a fornicator.

A long, sweaty night.

Hallelujah! - Did she blow

or suck that mark?

Can you drive any faster?

I'm a member of

a Special Task Force of the Police.

Have to get to the airport.

And by God, turn off that radio.

Major Lamminparras,

highly ranked.

Specialist onboard.

And stuffed.

What did he say?

I'm the composer of this!

And she is the only singer -

capable to interpret

music like this.

Come on, now.

My rhythm stick never lies still!

Listen to this...

It was hard.

Thank you.

The bloody light went on again.

Check the manual.

But it's in English...

A beer.

Here you go.

The bus broke down,

I gave the driver hell.

Everyone was freezing.

I was fixing it,

while waiting for the taxi.

I gave a ride to a nice, old couple.

We had a nice chat.

Now we're at the airport...

Maybe I shouldn't go?

Oh, Aarno.

We've been through this.

Yes, but...

- I don't have time for this.

Either you go there or you don't.

Decide now.

I have a friend visiting,

I must hang up now.

If you're not going,

come back home then!

Hello?

You're in a bit of hurry,

Mr. Lamminparras.

I know. But the important

phone conversations -

with the highest levels

can't wait.

You wait.

Sorry but you can't sit here.

We keep the last rows empty.

Please move forward.

Sorry.

405, wind 30 degrees 7 knots.

Taxi to runway 3-0.

Copy that, Finnair 405

taxing to runway 3-0.

The last leg of today. When

we get home, you seek some -

medical assistance.

Strong enough to kick it out.

Same thing will kick it out

that kicked it in.

405, you're clear for takeoff.

Runway 3-0.

405 copies. Thank you.

Takeoff runway 3-0.

Takeoff.

- Taxing.

Thrust set.

Off you go.

We're on our way.

Everything OK?

Everything is fine.

Marion is famous in Germany.

Why? Who knows her?

This is a Finnish magazine.

Easy to boast.

I'm going to record a foreign song.

It only takes one day.

Here we fly now.

This is wonderful, flying.

I'm a big shot in music business.

La Novia, that's my work.

Do you want to be a star?

Cover pictures, you know.

- I'm pregnant!

With me, everything is...

Maybe later.

Would you like to order?

- Not from you.

Ask the young girl over.

Are we on schedule?

Good afternoon,

this is the Captain.

My name is Taneli Rajapaltio and

my co-pilot is Calle Snock.

Our cruising altitude is 10,500 m -

and airspeed 800 km%h.

The Good Friday

weather in Helsinki is misty.

Temperature 8 degrees.

We'll land in 20 minutes.

Enjoy the journey.

Happy Easter.

And hi from the co-pilot.

It was not on, the mike.

Helsinki-Vantaa Airport

Time 15.35

What do you think if I go out

and get laid?

You could handle

the rest of the day alone.

Wishful thinking.

- Me getting out?

Getting laid.

Come on. The chicks go crazy

over air traffic controllers.

Especially after a few drinks.

Jesus the days here are long.

Long and boring.

Life after death

can't be any worse.

Not a pretty future.

Hello. Major Lamminparras.

I'd like to visit the flight deck.

Unfortunately, we can't...

- I know all that.

I have a long experience

in aviation.

Special air force duties.

Various tasks.

OK, Major. I'll ask the Captain.

- Very well.

Can't be any harm.

Five minutes.

This is a weird one.

- It's Easter. Good will time.

Ask him over.

- Let's hope he's not armed.

Yeah, see he doesn't carry a gun.

On Easter.

At least I'm going to have

my eggs colored.

Well...

The qualities of Caravelle

are unique.

Compared to Convair.

DC-9 gets pretty close.

You have a point there.

What's the airspeed?

Normal. 800 km per hour.

But she can climb high.

12,000 meters.

Are you an aviator?

From the Air Force?

That's what everyone thinks.

Major. From the Signal Corps.

I see.

Can you fly a plane like

this single-handed?

It's time to get back

and fasten the seat belt.

Just a moment.

Major, you really have to

go back to your seat.

The game is over now.

The beauty queens of today,

they're so skinny.

Just look at her. You'd find

prettier ones in any bar.

Men, I mean.

- But this Armi, she's hot.

Danny. He's the real talent.

Just a dirty old man.
