Isn't 2012 when the eagle contract is up? Coincidence?

Our contract is up in 2012. It must be a conspiracy. Let the theorist begin their research.

Anybody here old enough to remember Y2K?

Maybe in 2012 SkyNet becomes "Self Aware." (Terminator reference)

The Mayans didn't make it until 2012. That should tell you something.

We have major shifts in weather patterns?

There was a lot of concern at United in 1999. They went so far as to program the computers in an A-320 with an artificial date, to see what would happen when it rolled over to Jan 1, 2000. (Tested on the ground).

(It worked fine).

From the movie:

"It [Skynet] originally became self-aware on August 29th 1997 2:14 am Eastern Time."

As I've pointed out before, United Airlines' web-based communication system is called Skynet.

That means Tilton is a Cybernetic-Systems T1000 Terminator, sent to destroy a Captain named John Connor (and a Flight Attendant named Sarah Connor).

Apparently, 'liquid metal' doesn't set-off the TSA's metal detectors.
