^ Apollo 13 had scenes shot on NASA's zero-g simulating airplane the Vomit Comet. Maybe a gimmick but it fitted with the plot. You can imagine if they shot Flight Plan or Non Stop or Air Force One on an actual plane in midair just for the sake of it, that would be dumb and would add very little to the verisimilitude, although it might add some interest. But equally, I'd be quite interested in watching a disaster movie type thing set on a space-tourism plane where there's a saboteur, a bomb, an estranged couple inadvertently both booked on it, maybe a stowaway kid, and some nice shots out the window.
Best case, it'll be like when Noel Edmonds did a TV show on Concorde. Weirdly fascinating.
