I just watched the movie once again (5 hours miniseries of course(!)) last night, there is one thing i dont get. When they were going through the gibraltar passage, they were attacked (bombed) by an aircraft. Then they made a dive, after sprinting southwards for a couple of miles, and crushed to the ground.
So: Why did they go straight to the bottom?
There was no leaking? Just the front diveplanes where jammed!? So what?
In my opinion, with both engines full speed back and blowing the tanks they should have come to a stop! But they didn't.
So, what did i miss
