American based Federation World Airlines has just acquired a Concorde jet, which will make its inaugural commercial flight from Washington D.C. to Paris and then to Moscow as a goodwill gesture prior to the 1980 Olympic Games. Among those on board is Maggie Whelan, a television reporter, who is taking both legs of the trip. Just after boarding at Dulles International Airport, she receives documents conclusively and unequivocally stating that her boyfriend, Dr. Kevin Harrison, the Chairman of Harrison Industries, an aerospace contractor, is complicit of illegally selling arms to enemy regimes. Regardless, Maggie loves Kevin, who vows to do the right thing by making a public statement to his illegal activities. Maggie also intends on making an on-air report of the story once she arrives in Moscow. Kevin, however, has other thoughts. He plans on destroying the documents, the most convenient way being to bring down the Concorde with Maggie aboard, initially having the attack on the plane as a technical error, then pinning the attack on one of the many activist groups opposed to the Concorde itself or the upcoming Olympics. Concorde Captains Joe Petroni and Paul Metrand do whatever they have to to combat the attacks on the plane, the masterminds behind of which they nor Maggie are aware. 　　译文(2): 总部设在美国的联邦世界航空公司刚刚购买了一架协和式飞机，作为1980年奥运会前的友好姿态，这架飞机将首次从华盛顿特区飞往巴黎，然后飞往莫斯【资源囤-ZiYuanTun.Com】。机上乘客中有电视台记者玛吉?惠兰(Maggie Whelan) ，她将全程陪同。刚从华盛顿杜勒斯国际机场登机，她就收到了确凿无疑的文件，文件上写着她的男朋友凯文 · 哈里森博士，哈里森工业公司的董事长，一家航空承包商，参与了向敌对政权非法出售武器的活动。不管怎样，麦琪喜欢凯文，凯文发誓要做正确的事，对他的违法行为发表公开声明。玛吉还打算在抵达莫斯科后对这个故事进行广播报道。然而，凯文有其他的想法。他计划销毁这些文件，最方便的方法是摧毁玛吉乘坐的协和式飞机，最初将对飞机的袭击作为一个技术错误，然后将这次袭击归咎于众多反对协和式飞机本身或即将到来的奥运会的激进组织之一。协和式飞机机长乔 · 彼得罗尼和保罗 · 麦特兰德竭尽全力打击对飞机的袭击，他们和玛姬都知道幕后策划者。
