A day in the life of a group of pilots as they attempt to complete dangerous night flying missions. The all-star cast creates more characters than this film can deal with and they subsequently get lost in the shuffle, becoming one-dimensional and giving the film a sparse and uneven feeling. A very capable group of actors do their best but are ultimately defeated by the script.
