On Easter Sunday 2009,
Doug White, a 56-year-old pharmacist, his wife, and their two daughters return to
Archibald, Louisiana, after attending a funeral for White's brother. Less than 10 minutes after their
King Air 200 private plane (registered N559DW but mainly using the abbreviated callsign "niner delta whisky") takes off from
Marco Island, Florida, the pilot dies of a heart attack.
Fort Myers air traffic controllers and a flight instructor from
Danbury, Connecticut, manage to teach Doug how to fly the plane and land it while the family, who attend a
Church of Christ, pray for a miracle. ==Cast== ==Production==
