- Synopsis
- Vicki Barr's greatest desire is to obtain her pilot's license. Vicki signs up to take lessons with Bill Avery, who owns a small airport north of town. Bill's airfield serves small, unscheduled cargo flights. Vicki immediately learns that Bill has his hands full running his small airport and that Bill is hopelessly disorganized. Vicki tries to help him straighten up his disorderly office and put some order in his affairs. Bill's chief competitor, Andrew Corey, owns a neighboring airfield and is putting pressure on Bill to sell out to him. Bill refuses to sell his airfield, and shortly thereafter, one of Bill's planes is sabotaged. Could it just be coincidence, or could Andrew Corey or Bill's mysterious new mechanic, Spin Voight, be involved? All that Vicki knows for certain is that Spin appears to hold a grudge against her. Bill's problems multiply as a mysterious company named Land and Sky, Inc. tries to buy his airport, and local farmers seek an injunction to close Avery Airport. Vicki remains convinced that both Andrew Corey and Spin Voight are behind Bill's problems and works to uncover the plot before Bill's time runs out.
