PLOT

Brian McLean (James Cagney), Johnny Dutton (Dennis Morgan), "Tiny" Murphy (Alan Hale, Sr.), "Blimp" Lebec (George Tobias) and "Scrounger" Harris (Reginald Gardiner) are bush pilots competing for business in rugged Northern Ontario, Canada in 1939, as the Second World War is beginning. While Dutton flies by the book, McLean is a seat-of-the-pants kind of pilot, mirroring the differences in their personalities.

When Dutton saves McLean's life by transporting a doctor under dangerous flying conditions, McLean is grateful. He steals and marries Dutton's no-good girlfriend Emily Foster (Brenda Marshall) in order to save him from a life of misery. Dutton not surprisingly doesn't see it that way and their friendship comes to an abrupt end. Depressed, Dutton gives his savings to charity and enlists in the Royal Canadian Air Force.
