While flying his helicopter, Harry Walker observes an armed robbery of an armored car at the
Zion's Bank in downtown Salt Lake City in which bearded men gun down the guards and grab a canvas sack of currency, then grab a female hostage and shove her into their getaway car. Over the radio, Walker reports what he has seen to his old military commander McAndrew. Walker then pursues the car, while McAndrew informs him that fingerprints have identified two of the robbers as former Marines who served in Vietnam and they surmise that the chopper pilot is similarly experienced. Their hostage is identified as Teresa Janice "T.J." Shaw, a bank employee, who is due to get married that Friday. Walker rescues Ms. Shaw, who reveals that she has never been far from Salt Lake City in her 22 years and that she has known her fiancé since childhood. A gentle flirtation takes place and she kisses Walker three times, becoming somewhat infatuated. The following morning, Walker directs Shaw to go to the nearby highway and hitchhike after he lifts off. The helicopter chase resumes; meanwhile, McAndrew and a police pilot in a
Piper Arrow, alerted by the airline pilot, approach the area as well. The two helicopters fly to an
abandoned airfield, where the bank employee said the robbers have a getaway plane and pilot to fly them to Mexico. The police aircraft arrives and McAndrew runs to the hangar where Walker has cornered the bandit's helicopter inside, with Walker tossing the money out to McAndrew. Walker then rams his helicopter into the bandit's aircraft to save his buddy. The police pilot runs over and McAndrew says that they are going after the pilot of the getaway plane, who has just fled in a
Cessna 206 after seeing the crash. ==Cast==
