Hard 2: Die Harder (1990)
In this sequel of the famed action picture by director
Renny Harlin:
- the scene of John McClane (Bruce Willis) trapped
in the cockpit of the plane holding South American dictator and
drug lord General Esperanza (Franco Nero), with terrorists firing
their guns at him; when grenades were thrown into the cockpit through
smashed windows, McClane ejected himself and parachuted to safety,
just minutes before the grenades exploded and destroyed the plane
- the scene of McClane's discovery, accidentally, that
enemy mercenaries' guns were firing blank ammunition - he later proved
his findings to inept airport security chief Capt. Carmine Lorenzo
(Dennis Franz) by firing a machine gun - with blanks - at him

- the reprise of John McClane's famous line: "Yippie-kai-yay,
motherf--ker!" in the film's conclusion, when he ignited -
with his cigarette lighter - the fuel trail of a 747 airplane filled
with mercenaries and terrorists during take-off and the plane exploded
in a ball of fire, providing light for other planes circling above
to land
