A group of pilots and their planes are arriving at an air strip in New York City to do some flights for the public. One of the pilots, Freddy Richmond, is in love with a young groupie named Dottie. However, Dottie feels Freddy's flying is too conventional, and she loves the thrill of the more dangerous flying of Jack and Bill, who are renowned as the worst pilots in the group. To make names for themselves, Jack and Bill announce that they will make an around the world attempt, while in reality they will fly off, hide out for a few days, then arrive back from the opposite direction. Their trip gains greater notoriety as Dottie stows away in their plane. As Jack, Bill and Dottie tell of their exotic adventures of various locations around the globe, will their fraud be discovered?
