The small plane Tinny dreams of becoming a hero, but in a friendly team of inveterate planes he does not get recognition. One day, despite the captain Ben's ban, he sets off to save people from fire, but his life gets in danger, and the captain saves him at the cost of his own life. Out of misery, guilt and fear to take off Tinny leaves the team and starts working at mine. But suddenly the raging fire makes him recollect past times and he rushes to the aid of his friends without fear.
