- Mickael GoUpSkey, a foreign agent, is aboard a train en route to purchase planes for his country's military. A.C. Walrus, an agent for a rival country, is also aboard that same train and is ordered by his government to stop GoUpSkey from making that purchase at whatever cost. National security takes a back seat for Walrus when he meets and pursues a beautiful young woman on the train, she to who the foreign agent is also attracted. Walrus eventually learns that she is the daughter of the plane manufacturer and an aviatrix in her own right. Mayhem ensues when Walrus is able to test fly the demonstration plane, with GoUpSkey in hot pursuit. But also in pursuit are the young woman her aviator boyfriend and the police, the latter who are dealing with the destruction caused by the Walrus/GoUpSkey battle.—Huggo

- Chester Conklin and Dave Anderson are two rival buyers bent on purchasing an aeroplane. Conklin goes to the factory of Nick Cogley and makes a trial flight taking along Cogley's daughter, Betty. William Mason, who is a demonstrator for Cogley, objects to the girl going a-flying with the stranger, but the manufacturer assures him that it is simply done to conciliate the buyer. Conklin presses his attentions on Betty till in desperation she jumps out of the flyer using her umbrella for a parachute. She makes a safe landing. Conklin sees Anderson, his rival, speeding in an auto toward the factory. He drops bombs and blows up a concrete bridge but doesn't stop Anderson. Anderson gets to the factory first and has almost concluded the purchase of the flyer, when Conklin appears and outbids him. Then Mason appears on the scene and complains of Conklin. The father orders Conklin out and agrees to sell the machine to Anderson. Conklin sees the girl near the aeroplane and starts up the machine, thinking to kidnap her. He gets tangled up with the propeller, finally falling off into a barrel of rainwater on top a building. The girl manages to come safely to the ground. Then Anderson prepares for a flight. Conklin thinks to foil him so he cuts the wires on the aeroplane. Anderson does some great stunts of looping the loop, when a wing comes off which drops on a high smoke stack. Anderson loses control of his flyer and lands in a tree, unharmed. The broken wing shuts off the escape of smoke from the stack, so Cogley orders workmen to go up and take it off. They all tear to attempt the perilous task. Young Mason volunteers for the service and gets on top the stack. Conklin cuts the rope so that Mason has no way to get down again. Then Conklin puts a big charge of dynamite at the base of the stack and lights the fuse. Betty sees her lover in danger of destruction and flies in an aeroplane to the rescue. She just manages to take him aboard, when the stack is destroyed by the explosion. Anderson has been fighting with Conklin and drives the villain toward the stack. Conklin is buried when the dynamite explodes and shatters the stack.—Moving Picture World synopsis
