Segurança Nacional (2010)

National Security (original title Segurança Nacional - the movie had no official US release but aired in some festivals with the title National Security, not to be confused with the 2003 American film of the same name) is a 2010 Brazilian action movie directed by Roberto Carminati. After their route is disrupted, a Bolivian drug cartel plans a series of terror attacks against the Brazilian government; a group of intelligence agents is tasked with stopping them.

The production had support from the Brazilian government which provided real military equipment.

The fireport can be seen in this shot. This would probably compromise the structural integrity of the window and cause the plane to lose pressure (It's worth noting that in other shots the plane is shown flying above the clouds)
