Fate Is the Hunter (1964) Synopsis

Sam McBane is an executive at Consolidated Airlines. One of Consolidated's passenger planes crashes shortly after takeoff, killing 53 people on board. There is only one survivor, a flight attendant. The pilot of the plane was Captain Jack Savage, a long-time friend of Sam's. Sam and Jack flew transport planes together in WW2. Jack was a playboy, and the press are painting him as as irresponsible and undisciplined...and the likely cause of the crash. Consolidated's CEO and other executives are quite happy to go along with this view, as it makes Jack Savage the scapegoat for the crash and absolves the airline from blame. However, Sam thinks else-wise and sets out to find the truth, and hopefully clear his friend.—grantss
