The Flight of the Phoenix.

Theirs was the triumph - yours, the excitement!

A cargo aircraft crashes in a sandstorm in the Sahara with less than a dozen men on board. One of the passengers is an airplane designer who comes up with the idea of ripping off the undamaged wing and using it as the basis for a replacement aircraft they need to build before their food and water run out.

Directed by Robert Aldrich
