Agosto de 1944. Con la 8ª Fuerza Aérea Americana preparada para atacar sobre la Alemania Nazi, la Inteligencia Británica se entera de que podrían estar volando hacia una trampa mortal. Con solo horas de sobra, el teniente de vuelo Edward Barnes debe volar en una misión de vida o muerte sobre Berlín en su desarmado Spitfire para obtener pruebas fotográficas y salvar la vida de 1200 hombres.

A young pilot, fresh out of training, is called to join a Flight while they wait for the call to scramble. Throughout a single day, he witnesses the skies of southern England filled with deadly dog fights, and after every exhausting battle the men return to their dispersal hut, only to find another of their number missing. Unwilling to surrender, the pilot and his comrades unite to take to the skies once more, determined to defend not only the airfield, but their entire country.
