** Later on Chief Steward Graham Skinner has to use a megaphone to instruct passengers how to use their oxygen masks because, "We're having a small problem with the public address system." Even though it's quite a sensible thing to do, bear in mind, this is while the plane is filled with smoke, with exactly zero engines working and with less than twenty minutes before it crashes into the sea, which makes any problem with the public address system seem rather insignificant in comparison.
