The pilots of an Alaska Airlines MD-80 fight desperately for control, as their aircraft careens towards the Pacific ocean with terrifying speed. No matter what they do, they cannot seem to pull their plane out of its dive. Passengers scream, and loose objects are thrown to the ceiling by the g-forces. Will the pilots recover from this fall and make it to Los Angeles, just a few miles away, or will they lose their fight, against their deranged aircraft?

This is the story of Alaska Airlines flight 261.
