1974 · 107 min · Drama, Thriller, Action
When an in-flight collision incapacitates the pilots of an airplane bound for Los Angeles, stewardess Nancy Pryor is forced to take over the controls. From the ground, her boyfriend Alan Murdock, a retired test pilot, tries to talk her through piloting and landing the 747 aircraft. Worse yet, the anxious passengers — among which are a noisy nun and a cranky man — are aggravating the already tense atmosphere.
Directed by Jack Smight. Starring Charlton Heston, Karen Black, George Kennedy, Efrem Zimbalist Jr. and Susan Clark.
