Disclosure: certain links are commissioned.

A hidden ace controller remotely pilots a crippled jet to save hundreds.

Jack Reynolds works LAX radar under an assumed name, his combat record buried beneath a headset. When Flight PC1722 suffers catastrophic damage over the Pacific after Captain Allison rejects his collision alert, Jack commandeers the datalink and flies the wide-body from the ground. Two hundred eighty-seven passengers depend on his inputs as the aircraft sheds structure. Meanwhile the celebrity crew resists his commands and a supervisor moves to suppress the incident, forcing Jack to outfly both the disintegrating jet and the institution protecting its own reputation.
