    • Goofs
      While flying a ground-controlled approach (GCA) to Jackson Field, the air traffic controller talks the aircraft down to as close as one half mile from touchdown yet the film footage shows the Constellation still flying with no landing gear deployed. They haven't put the wheels down.

    Interesting time capsule of the beginning of commercial flying and Cold War
    SKY LINER is a 61-minute B picture - short, effective, and reflective of the beginning of the Cold War and of commercial aviation (great publicity for the now defunct TWA. How the world changed in some 40 years!)

    I do not know the actors but they do not compromise the product in any way. It is a riveting film from beginning to end, and characters have proper motivations for their actions.

    No waste of time, this!
