n 1944, a C-47 transport plane nicknamed Peto's Key vanishes while flying "The Hump," the dangerous World War II air route over the Himalayas. Aboard are five men from different corners of America, bound together by duty and the shared hope of making it home. When mechanical failure and brutal weather force them down into the Burmese jungle, survival depends on trust, ingenuity, and the bonds forged in the sky. Decades later, the wreck of Peto's Key is discovered and restored, reopening a story long buried by time. When the aircraft is brought back to the United States for exhibition, the surviving members of the crew-now old men scattered by life-are drawn together once more. What begins as a tribute becomes a final reckoning with memory, loss, and unfinished business. Spanning wartime Asia and Northern Michigan, The Flight of Peto's Key is a moving story of brotherhood, endurance, and the lasting imprint of war. Meticulously researched and emotionally grounded, it honors the airmen who flew the war's most dangerous missions-and the courage it takes to answer the call of the sky one last time. It's Band of Brothers meets Cocoon, with a touch of The Great Escape.
