A beautifully filmed documentary film by Erik Blomberg about the Jämijärvi glider and motor flight training during the war year of 1942. Matti and Pekka are on both glider and motor flight courses. The end of the film is dramatic and charged, and it is not staged. How does a cloud flight training landing succeed in poor visibility when the field is lost? "At least that boy is still alive, the brave one is eating a rocket..."
