Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines

In the early days of flight, Lord Rawnsley offers £10,000 in prize money for the winner of a London to Paris air race.

Intending to prove that British means best, Rawnsley puts his faith in a Royal Navy Lieutenant (James Fox), but other competitors, including a German officer (Gert Frobe) and a caddish English gent (Terry-Thomas), are determined to prove their own worth.
