Never a good aviator in the best of times, Lt. Hanley (Rick Jason) doesn't look forward to going on an aerial reconnaissance mission. Things don't get much better for Hanley when he climbs into the rickety, jerry-built monoplane piloted by flamboyant flyboy Tim Brannigan (Keenan Wynn). Making no secret of his contempt for mere "foot soldiers", Brannigan is less than thrilled when his plane is grounded in enemy territory with no radio, forcing him to put his life in Hanley's hands--and feet. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
