Iron Eagle

Thank you to our listener, Ryan, for requesting this high-flying amazingness. Doug (Jason Gedrick) dreams of being a fighter pilot just like his father. His father (Tim Thomerson) is shot down and captured, and it seems that the U.S. government isn’t moving quickly enough to rescue him. Now, he’s got three days to live, and Doug will gain the Obi Wan wisdom of Chappy (Louis Gossett Jr.). With the aid of all of Doug’s friends, some light hacking, moving some F-16s and rockets around, they forge a friendship and a rescue plan that just might work. Also, all of this is extremely illegal and seems unlikely. But, hell, it’s time to fly like an eagle. An iron eagle! RTS strap reel-to-reel tape decks to their legs, and they let the rock flow. La-Mar, Collin and Jeremy hot dog every-which-way. When are they not hot doggin’ around? “This one’s for you, Chappy.”
