When a catastrophic fuel miscalculation leaves a brand-new Boeing 767 powerless at 41,000 feet with 69 souls aboard, Captain Bob Pearson must transform his commercial airliner into the world's heaviest glider in a desperate race against gravity. Based on the incredible true story of the "Gimli Glider," this harrowing tale of survival shows how quick thinking, expert piloting, and sheer determination turned an impossible situation into one of aviation's most miraculous emergency landings.
