Following WW1, a drunken American war hero is hired to fly a biplane for a spoiled socialite in an attempt to find her missing father. The pair, along with a mechanic take two bi-planes into Afghanistan, India, Nepal, and finally China before the missing father is found fighting a war with a local warlord. All the while, the father’s business partner is trying to have them killed. Tom Selleck is outstanding as the drunken pilot in a constant battle with the socialite played by Bess Armstrong. The father is played by Wilford Brimley. The supporting cast and comic relief are inspired by Jack Weston and John Morley.
