Having been raised on a farm, young New Zealander John Noble longs for an adventure away from his family's homestead.

Enthralled by the sight of a Tiger Moth flying overhead, he decides to pursue a career as an RAF pilot and travels to the United Kingdom to complete his training.

And as his missions grow ever more dangerous, John wonders just how far he should go trying to persuade the squadron hierarchy that change is needed...

Is John ready for battle? Will he follow orders, even though he thinks they may have disastrous consequences for him and his fellow squadron pilots?

Or is he destined to become another casualty of war...?
