Didn't he say that he had flown in the Air Force and then been flying crop dusters ever since, or some shite like that?

I fricking love this movie, btw, but one thing that always bugged the frick out of me was that as soon as that blue laser light thing comes on and hits his plane, it should have died and he should've crashed back to earth in short fashion. The laser knocks out power from a fricking underground, top secret, high level military facility, but his plane just bosses through it lickity split.

Also bugs me how him roughing the tip of the laser immediately explodes the entire, 15-mile-wide ship, but whatever...it's still awesome.
