Produced by California National, FLIGHT was a much beloved aviation TV show that unfortunately only ran for one season 1958-1959 (38 episodes total). Featuring dramatic stories from the annals of the U.S. Air Force, the series starred Gen. George C. Kenney. California National also produced SILENT SERVICE, a wonderful drama about submarines. In this episode, BUILD UP, the crash of a C-47 airplane near Norton AFB forces flight surgeon Harry Mischner to improvise in order to save the life of an airman.
