OVER BLACK SCENE CARD
Air Force One Turns the Plane Into the State
The airplane works because it is not just transport. It contains the presidency, family, military command, media symbolism, and hostage math in one moving pressure vessel.
Why it works
The hijack turns corridors, cockpit access, phones, parachutes, and fuel into constitutional drama. Spatial control becomes state control.
