Was there a last-minute change to the script?
When Cliff is being shot at during the test flight at the beginning of the movie, does anyone happen to know if that was a late addition to the script? Because nobody's ever mentioning that later and the two guys are even apologetic about their plane having crash-landed. At multiple occasions, I was shouting at the screen: "Yeah, because you've been shot at!"
This all felt very disconnected. Does anybody know the reason for this?
