In this drama, a flamboyant womanizing airline pilot competes with another, rather dull, pilot for the love of a fetching flight attendant. At first she ignores her sister's advice and has a fling with the charming cad, who gets back at the meddlesome sister by hitting her on the head. The two lovers return to their jobs. During a flight, a terrible storm erupts and the cowardly pilot bails out, leaving the flight attendant to fly the passenger- filled plane by herself. Fortunately, the good pilot is in the tower and calmly guides her safely to the ground. Meanwhile the other pilot gets his just desserts when his parachute fails to open.
