An FAA inspector (Harold J. Stone) and members of the airport staff (Noah Keen, Fredd Wayne, Robert Karnes, and Bing Russell) investigate a plane that arrives without a single person onboard – and each sees it differently.

While traveling down an apparently deserted road, toward the end of the Civil War, a wounded Confederate Soldier stops to take a rest on the steps of a destroyed mansion. While there, he meets a widow of a Confederate Officer. They soon watch as soldiers, from the North and South, travel down the road, and ultimately realize that at the end of the road is the Promised Land.
