After finishing up on an aerial
photography assignment which involved documenting a forest fire, Chuck
and P.T. get hired to look for a store owner's missing father-in-law,
who as a "weekend"
uranium prospector had previously found some high level ore. Upon
landing in the area, the pilots are met first with verbal resistance
from two shady characters and once back in the air, gun fire.

S1E03 - Boy On The Roof ✓
Dave Williams is one teen with a bone to pick. He's angry at the way his older brother has been treated by the law. To draw attention to this situation, he climbs to the top of a local building and threatens to jump. He gets a lot of attention quickly, including that of a newspaper journalist who smells a good story. The reporter gets P.T. to fly him up to the roof so that he can interview the troubled young man and at first, it looks like the boy is ready to come down. Only the newsman knows that the longer he keeps the kid on the roof, the better the story becomes. Chuck and P.T. get wise to the reporter's scheme and help the chief of police defuse the situation before the teen's life ends in tragedy.

S1E05 - Hot Wire ✓
A mining company calls Whirlybirds, Inc. with a desperate need. There is a child in their construction office in the mountains who is very ill and in need of a negative pressure ventilator known as an iron lung. The pilots locate one and strap it to one of the struts on the outside of the helicopter. In route to the remote location, a fierce storm buffets the Bell 47G and P.T. risks his own life to re-secure the respirator while Chuck struggles to keep the bird in the air and away from the canyon rock face. After setting down and delivering the device, the power goes out at the facility, causing the pilots to come up with a clever solution to the problem, preserving the child's life.

S1E06 - Mountain Flight ✓
One of the Whirlybirds, Inc. most popular hires is during hunting season, when they will typically fly a sportsman into a remote area to hunt wild game. One such trip involved a classy dressing man by the name of Malloy, who hires P.T. and Chuck to fly him up into the mountains for the weekend. The pilots soon meet another man named Sandy who approaches them for help. He tells them that Malloy is not there to hunt game, but that this is intended to be a murder of a man who owes a large gambling debt to the mob. How does he know this? Well he helped plan the hit. Unfortunately, Sandy found out too late that the hit is on him, and he now needs help from Chuck and P.T to survive.

Chuck and P.T. are hired by a wealthy sportsman's wife to find her husband, who has not returned from a trip up the coast in his cabin cruiser. The pilots finally find the boat stranded in an isolated cove surrounded by sheer cliffs. No one, however, is on the boat or in the area. The pilots copter home and are met by two insurance investigators. The agents are curious about the sportsman's whereabouts too, since he has recently taken out a hefty life insurance policy. Commandeering a second Bell 47, the four men fly back to the cove, determined to get to the bottom of the mystery.
