Legendary captain Bryan Shaw dies in a plane crash after his ex-girlfriend, Wendy Luke, deliberately prevents an emergency landing. At a subsequent press conference, she falsely accuses him of causing the disaster, and he is blamed for the crash.
Granted with a second chance at life, Bryan gathers evidence in advance and defies dangerous orders, successfully saving all 327 passengers. But Wendy fights back, destroying evidence, fabricating proof, and manipulating public opinion with her family's influence. As Bryan gradually exposes the truth, he uncovers the misunderstanding that tore them apart five years ago and the conspiracy surrounding Wendy's father, who concealed the truth all along.
In the end, Bryan clears his name, brings Wendy and her father to justice, and returns to the cockpit to reclaim his career as a pilot.
