Soviet pilot.
The airborne trickster - Aleksei Tomylin, civil aviation pilot - one day decides to stop tempting fate and only flies directly. The airport where Tomylin works is near the border with Afghanistan. One day he receives the task to fly across the border and transfer a package with an order to catch a notorious saboteur. On his way back, Tomylin crash lands near an abandoned settlement - and soon finds himself taken hostage by a gang. The hero pretends to agree to take the saboteur abroad, and relies only on his expertise as a flying ace.....
One day the usual order of one of the country's major airports is disrupted: pilot Zubov lands his plane during the fog accurately and beautifully, but contrary to regulations. Another daredevilry of Zubov ends with the fact that he sinks the plane in a swamp, almost killing himself and the adopted son of the airport engineer - Gvozdik. Zubov is deprived of his pilot's license for six months, but is retained in the team.
