Aircraft Name: Phoenix 216 |
The Phoenix 216 was the jet airliner that was put in use as the new executive airplane for use by Nicolae Carpathia following the destruction of the Condor 216 in South Africa in Assassins.
History[]
This was formerly the executive plane of Enigma Babylon One World Faith spiritual leader Peter Mathews, but was commandeered by Carpathia for use as his executive plane against the wishes of Mathews. Director David Hassid was responsible for setting up the bugging system on this plane for use by the Tribulation Force.
Trivia[]
- In an interview with Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins, a reader asked the significance of the number "216." The authors provided the following answer:
- JJ: 216 is the product of a mathematical equation. I mean, Antichrist would know enough not to blatantly use 666 (which is a clue)
- LB: We can't actually give you the solution to 216, but you should be able to figure it out with the hint from Jerry above.
