Inhaltsbeschreibung
Die Costa Perdida in Mittelamerika ist Start- und Landeplatz der Air America. Von dort aus nehmen die Piloten der privaten Luftflotte ihren streng geheimen Kampf gegen Drogenkartelle und korrupte Regierungen auf. Denn Air America ist eine Tarnorganisation der US-Regierung. Star der Truppe ist Navy-Pilot Rio Arnett. Hauptdarsteller Lorenzo Lamas legte sich für die Rolle des coolen, furchtlosen Fliegers eigens einen Flugschein zu. 26 Mal durfte er als Rio Arnett in den Himmel aufsteigen: „Während meiner ganzen Karriere habe ich noch nie einen so befreienden Moment erlebt“, so der „Renegade“-Star.
