John Travolta rememora un incidente en un avión que casi le costó su vida

Share

La nueva producción cinematográfica protagonizada por John Travolta, ‘The Shepherd’, cuenta la historia de un joven piloto de la Real Fuerza Aérea británica que sufre un fallo mecánico mientras vuela sobre el mar del Norte. El actor relacionó la trama con un incidente similar que vivió en 1992, el cual relató en una conferencia de prensa tras la presentación del filme el 23 de noviembre.

El De Havilland Vampire es un avión de combate británico desarrollado y fabricado por De Havilland Aircraft Company. Fue el segundo caza a reacción operado por la RAF, después del Gloster Meteor, y el primero en funcionar con un solo motor a reacción.

Primer vuelo: 20 de septiembre de 1943. Retirado: 1955. Velocidad máxima: 548 mph. Tipo de motor: Turborreactor

Durante la exposición en Londres en el Reino Unido, Travolta se refirió al momento en que creyó que iba a perder la vida y que le sirvió para encarar su participación en la película. “Sabía lo que se siente al pensar que iba a morir”, comentó.

En el filme, el personaje Freddie Hooke, interpretado por Ben Radcliffe, sufre una falla eléctrica a bordo de un Havilland Vampire, algo similar a lo que vivió Travolta. “Experimenté una falla eléctrica total, no en un Vampire sino en un avión corporativo sobre Washington D.C. Así que cuando leí el libro de Frederick Forsyth resonó aún más debido a esta experiencia que había tenido”, afirmó.

“Tenía dos buenos motores de reacción, pero no tenía instrumentos ni electricidad, nada”, recordó. “Pensé que todo se había acabado. Luego, como por un milagro, descendimos según las reglas a una altitud más baja. Vi ese monumento de Washington D.C. e identifiqué que el Aeropuerto Nacional de Washington estaba justo al lado e hice un aterrizaje como lo hace el personaje Freddie Hooke en la película”, agregó.

El incidente que vivió Travolta ocurrió el 24 de noviembre de 1992, cuando el actor piloteaba un avión Gulfstream II de Florida a Maine (EE.UU.). En la aeronave también viajaba su familia.

“Hay muy pocos proyectos en los que he estado involucrado que estén encerrados aquí”, concluyó Travolta señalando su corazón.

    Qantas Airlines는 John Travolta 707의 재구축 비용을 지불했고 또한 Qantas는 John Travolta에게 747 400 중 하나를 제안했지만 John은 유지 관리 때문에 그 중 하나를 소유하는 데 너무 많은 비용이 든다며 마지못해 거절했습니다. 나는 부자지만 그렇게 부자는 아닙니다.” 또한 존 트라볼타(John Travolta)는 자신의 707을 이용해 구호 항공편을 탔을 뿐만 아니라 아이티에도 여러 차례 필요한 물품을 배달하고 사람들을 데리고 날아갔습니다.

    Travolta appears to be quite a resilient man, after all, not everybody overcomes so many losses in their life like he did, and upon going on with his usual life, that task gets less hard.
