Concerning aviation, there are several mistakes that affect the plot's credibility. 1) Though not required by current FAA regulations, it is strongly recommended to file a flight plan on non-IFR flights - even more so when the route leads over mountainous terrain. Typically, 30 minutes after the scheduled arrival, search and rescue will begin along the planned route. 2) While severe weather is grounding airlines, a small charter plane - incapable of flying over weather fronts to begin with - is good to fly. 3) Almost all aircraft in the U.S. carry an ELT, a radio signal beacon which allows search aircraft as well as satellites to pick up the signal. If a crash is survived by some passengers, the chance is very, very high that the ELT remains in a functioning state. However, as it is the duty of the pilot to make the appropriate choices regarding the flight plan and the weather (and to have the ELT periodically checked), the events in the film are still possible.
