The story

After the failure of both engines of his passenger jet during take-off, pilot Jack Savage (Rod Taylor) successfully belly lands the plane along what initially appears to be an open stretch of beach. However, it uncontrollably skids into a pier, exploding and killing all but one aboard, stewardess Martha Webster (Susanne Pleshette). Early in the investigation, it is discovered that one engine failed after ingesting a seagull, while the other is mysteriously mechanically sound.
