After a heroic job of successfully landing his storm-damaged aircraft in a war zone, a fearless pilot finds himself between the agendas of multiple militias planning to take the plane and its passengers hostage.

Mid-air difficulties force a Nigerian commercial plane into an emergency landing with devastating consequences.

An ill-fated flight ends in the Western Desert where it crash-fives into quicksand as the passengers try to control their temper. The movie provides archetypes as they start reflecting on their lives in crisis, some of them being hopeless, and some of them being hopeless romantics.

An airplane is having trouble right above our heads. A pilot instructor, sitting in his car, is driving towards the airport. Cell phone in hand, he gives the steward instructions to avoid the worst. But soon the communication is cut...

An airliner collides with a light plane just after takeoff, causing its elevators to jam in the full climb position. It will crash as soon as the fuel runs out, unless some desperate measure succeeds in bringing the nose down.

In November 19, 1946, a U.S. military transport plane goes out of control while flying over the Swiss Alps and crashes high in the mountains. Miraculously, all 12 passengers and crew survive the accident, but their safety is anything but assured. The aircraft has flown miles off course, and its position is unknown. Food supplies are low, the temperature is dropping, and their radio battery is running out of juice. Time is quickly running out. The fate of the survivors will depend on one man, one plane, and one inspired idea.

But the nose drops. Speed picks up. And suddenly he's caught in a downward spiral, a graveyard spin. In Signposts Aloft, you'll find our how man's senses can be fooled in flight. You'll see experiments that dramatically illustrate the problems pilots and astronauts face. And you'll learn why man needs outside guidance from God, just as pilots need to place faith in their instrument panels.

Meanwhile, federal officials on the ground who have lost radio contact with the jet debate whether the plane should be shot down to prevent a more disastrous crash in a heavily populated area.
