Continuity

When Purdey sees Turner's aeropane fly past and land while she's searching for Brandon, it's Irene's yellow 'plane, not Turner's red one.
When Gambit's stopping Turner from taking by holding the ailerons up, there's a close-up of Turner in the cockpit in which you can see a member of the crew running parallel to the 'plane in the middle distance.
