Flight Time

What begins as a simple flight from AK to LA turns into an almighty battle for survival. With no communication or navigations systems, they are lost. With Fuel running out they have no chance of rescue or escape.

A “Matt Tate” FILM
WRITTEN BY Matt Tate

A group of passengers are flying over the pacific when a lightning strike knocks out the engines and sends their plane hurtling towards the ocean.

The Pilots wrestle with the controls and once they get the engines running they are able to pull the plane out of its death dive. But all is not back to normal, the planes navigation system is fried, they have lost all communications and have only a limited amount of fuel left.

They are lost and flying blind.

When the fuel runs out everybody prepares for a water landing, but somehow the plane keeps flying.

The hours turn into days as conditions onboard become unbearable. The will to survive is especially strong in some people, so when the food and water run out they begin to eat the dead.

Everybody onboard is panicking and losing their minds, all except two people.

One an old man dressed all in white, the other a slick Lawyer’s wearing a black suit, with a black tie and a black shirt.
