Chicago air traffic controller Jack Harris, though cleared of responsibility for a major Transair crash, killing all 174 aboard, gives up the job and designs air control software. Five years later, his ex-colleague T.C. Bryant, meanwhile also transferred to Phoenix, desperately asks him to help out short-term, given desperate staff shortage on New Year's Eve with a bad storm predicted, after a power cut hits. Colleagues welcome him in very different states of mind but he quickly proves his capabilities.[1]
