Two brothers, Joe and Brian Hackett, run a one-plane commuter service from a small Nantucket airport. Along with Joe's on-again/off-again girlfriend, there are more hilarious and eccentric characters who work out of or at the airport.

Foul weather forces an ocean landing for Brian and Joe en route to Helen's debut with the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

Stranded in the ocean after their plane goes down, the gang contemplates the ironies of life.

Brian convinces Joe to fake a crash-related injury to help finance the rebuilding of the airline.

Brian becomes the victim of a plastic surgeon (Peter Brown); Roy teaches a high-school intern (Scott Grimes) a lesson.
