Overview:

Sonny's birthday wish comes true — a ride in the helicopter, but not the way he expects. While flying over Sydney, Flight Ranger Jerry King collapses, leaving Sonny alone with the controls. To save their lives, Matt tries to use a tranquilizer gun to deliver the medicine to Jerry while flying alongside. When that fails, Sonny must be talked through landing the helicopter on his own.
