The film centers on the adventures of Sea Cadet Jimmy Sutton, played by Roy Savage. Sutton is seen walking down an English country path, and the sound of a boy's cheerful whistling are dubbed onto the soundtrack. Soon a misfiring propeller engine is also heard and a World War II-style plane crashes in a field.
