Wings in the Dark

Tense and tender ... the down-to-earth drama of a pair of flying fools who rose to new heights of ecstasy on the wings of love.

In his dedicated pursuit of technology that will aid pilots to safely "fly blind" during adverse conditions, aerial innovator Ken Gordon is literally blinded in an accident, but this setback doesn't deter him from his goal.
