  1. David Ellison, with little money but lots of ambition; Wally Cram, who has plenty of money; and Red Ryan, a young Irish mechanic are bound for a school for apprentices for lighter-than-air craft. Three years later, David and Red are putting the finishing touches on the flight of the Silver Ship, a giant dirigible nearing completion in its hanger. Wally appears. He has heard the Silver Ship needs more backing. He puts enough capital into the venture to assure himself a place on her round-the-world flight. He will now be a dazzling figure in the public eye. When the majestic ship leaves her hanger, David is a pilot and Red a mechanic aboard her. When she returns in nineteen days, she holds the record for a world flight. Wally is a very humble rich man, David a victorious pilot and inventor, and Red Ryan the friend that sticketh tighter than a brother.
