While his mum struggles to hold the family together and quietly sells the flying school to a mysterious buyer, Jett sneaks off to the Flying Club, risking everything. If she catches him at the air show, she'll send him straight to boarding school. With the help of his fearless, slightly unhinged Aunt Allie, Jett makes a dangerous choice. He'll fly anyway.
