About The Show
Teenage paraplegic Suzy Gilstrap made her TV acting debut as a wheelchair-bound girl with a desire to pilot her own airplane. Bette Davis, as a former stunt flyer who now runs a small airport's cafe, and Howard Hesseman, as the airport's easy-going watchman, team up to help her fulfill her dream. Formerly titled "Ron Howard's 'Skyward'," this movie was followed some months later by an hour-long sequel called "Skyward Christmas," also starring Suzy Gilstrap, a pilot to a prospective series.
