After stepping down from elite military aviation, decorated pilot Elijah Freeman trades global renown for an unassuming post in a civilian control tower. He seeks peaceful obscurity away from military protocol, yet his quiet arrival invites instant hostility from Jessica Ross, a celebrated flight captain who dismisses him as an incompetent desk clerk.
