The story

As described in a film magazine, Al Simpkins is an ambitious aviator who has invented a new fuel he calls "Economo" which, he declares, will allow a plane to fly 1000 miles on a pint. He makes a trial flight on the fuel and, while in the air, sees his sweetheart Stella Hearns riding in a car with the wealthy and dishonest Silas Smythe. Just as the car gets out of control, Al sweeps down and rescues her by means of a rope ladder from his plane.
