- "The Lion Has Wings":
A documentary-drama produced by Alexander Korda, which was intended as a propaganda weapon designed to show the splendid efforts of the British people who bravely fought, both abroad and at home, against the evil Nazi war machine.
- "Q Planes":
Major Hammond of Scotland Yard is called in to investigate the mysterious disappearance of prototype British planes when on their test flights. At first Hammond is seen as an outsider at the factory, but he soon finds a friend in star pilot Tony McVane who helps him try to unravel the case. Hammond becomes convinced that the company secretary at the factory, Jenkins is a foreign agent and follows him to London. Meanwhile, the mystery still remains unsolved when Tony returns to the aircraft factory, determined to make the next test flight. His plane is bought down by a powerful ray, beamed from a mysterious salvage ship. Tony is taken hostage on the ship, where he discovers many other missing pilots have suffered the same fate. Will Hammond come to McVane's rescue and save the day?
