Mayday

If you thought Michael Crichton's Airframe posed the ultimate in-flight nightmare, welcome to Mayday. When an airliner going from the United States to Tokyo is hit by a U.S. Navy missile, chaos and death engulf the plane. The people aboard who are lucky enough to still be alive care only about making it to safety. But the government only wants to cover up the potential public-relations disaster.
