California, United States of America.

Several shots of aeroplanes doing stunts at America's International Air Day. Ralph Johnson's biplane zooms towards the earth; cut to people in the crowd looking stunned; cut to Ralph's plane, which is a pile of smoking wreckage on the ground!

We then see Mike Murphy's small plane taking off from a small platform on the roof of a moving car - he appears to fall, then recovers. Mike lands again on the car.
