The Man in the Sky
John Mitchell's efforts to provide a better life for his wife Mary and their two children appear bound to failure, and he blames himself. Mitchell is to fly the company's new rocket-propulsion transport plane up for tests at the Conway Aero-Manufacturing Company in Wolverhampton, fully loaded and carrying two essential passengers: Ministry official Crabtree and buyer's representative Ashmore. Mitchell learns from his boss, Reg Conway, that if Ashmore does not approve the jet, the company would go out of business and Mitchell will lose his job, because the plane is not even insured and the company's entire money is invested in it. A fire breaks out in the plane's engine while it's in the air, forcing passengers and crew to evacuate, but Mitchell refuses to follow instructions to ditch the plane in the Irish Sea.
