Kodiak Hero: Based on a True Story

Based on a story of survival of an Alaskan plane crash which left Donald and Afton Blanc and several passengers alone and abandoned on a rocky and unreachable mountaintop. With the airplane on fire, the pilot incapacitated with two broken legs, a dying copilot, a little boy, and two pregnant woman, Donald Blanc works to signal search and rescue. In a wreck like this, survival is near impossible. The Coast Guard doesn't believe there could be survivors. With thick fog and worsening conditions and a reluctant search and rescue team, how can the ordinary man do the extraordinary to save six lives when all seems lost? The Kodiak Hero follows the efforts of Donald Blanc and the first responders who risked life and limb to save those who should have been left for dead.
