 The Spindrift, a commercial spaceship on a flight from New York City to London, became lost when it passed through a strange cloud in the ship s orbit around Earth. It landed on an alternate Earth-type planet, where the inhabitants were roughly twelve times the size of the Spindrift s passengers. Our heroes include the ship s captain (Steve Burton), co-pilot (Dan) and stewardess (Betty); an arrogant engineer (Mark); a sexy jet-setter (Valerie); a young boy (Barry) and his dog Chipper; and a mysterious rogue known as Commander Fitzhugh. Together they battle the planet s totalitarian government, try to avoid capture, and attempt to repair the Spindrift so they can get back home.
