Description by OLDIES.com:
Phil Mercedes, the world-famous "Greatest Pilot of Them All," has been grounded because of his addiction to alcohol. Wendy Barrie plays Phil's sister Kay leaves drafting school to help her struggling sibling get back on his feet, with plans to use her brothers past design skills to keep them both employed. With Phil's unrefined airplane designs in her possession. Kay gets her foot in the door at McLean Aircraft, a company at the edge of bankruptcy and looking for radical engineering solutions to revive its fortunes. When a preliminary stress test for a revolutionary wing design drafted by Phil fails, tension is created in the fledgling relationship between Kay and McLean's chief engineer. This prompts Phil to use his prodigious aerial skills to prove his designs are sound and save McLean Aircraft and his professional reputation.
