Synopsis "Pilot Error"
Two pissed off pilots accept the offer of Hasid Kahn, direct descendant of Kublai Khan, grandson of Genghis Kahn from the dynasty of Khmer kingdom. The pilot is ticked because he has been passed over as a member of the airline board of directors. The copilot arrives for the evening flight and his wife has runoff with all is money, and he is ticked. When the airliner is airborne the copilot enters the belly of the airplane and wires a fuse between the power supply and the "black box." When the power is broken to the black box, the airliner is blind to radar. Kahn has a devious plan to punish America because of the devastation of Cambodia during the Vietnam War; his mother and father were killed in that campaign. The 239 passengers from Flight 420 are the bargaining chip to negotiate release of his henchmen incarcerated at Guantanamo. The two pilots have been paid sufficiently to assassinate the President. Hasid appoints Tzu Tong, his Asian partner as the ambassador to China for the purpose of setting up his drug and human trafficking projects in that country. Tong has a supervisor, Mancuso who accomplishes his wishes. Mancuso is shacking up with Sun Mo who hates his guts. He has given her teenage daughter, Ming Su to Tzu Tong hoping to rise up in the organization. She plans to kill Mancuso in a way that she sees the terror in his eyes. Mancuso does not live with Sun Mo, but takes his meals at her house. On one dismal afternoon he is sitting out on her front porch swing, drinking her homebrew screaming for his food. Sun Mo steps out on the porch, slamming the screen door behind her. She gazes in his face speaking words that terrifies him. He looks at the bottle of homebrew, and then her satisfied face, and falls out dead on the floor. His body shakes from cyanide poisoning. Sun Mo has been taken in by a group looking for the hostages in Ho Chi Ming City. She is desperately concern about Ming Su, who is about twenty years old now. Suddenly a beautiful young woman walks into the hotel and registers for a room. Ming Su watches her movements, her tanned face. Her mind reels from emotion-could it be her? She walks over as the young woman passes, looks into her face and calls her name. The young woman recognizes her as her long lost mother. They embrace. The story runs from Malaysia to Cambodia, to Angkor Thor, and Ho Chi Ming City. The airliner finally lands in Canada. Kim Marshall, talented reporter with two Pulitzer prizes for journalism is assigned to the case. The Royal Mounted Police is involved and the American FBI. Kim and her friends who have been heavily involved in the case are searching for the hostages. When they find over 200 of the 239 passengers executed and laying in the Alaskan snow, Kim gets a phone call that her kid brother is one of the hostages. Will she find her kid brother alive?
