Description:Pilot Brass Bancroft (Ronald Reagan) is chosen by government agent Saxby (John Litel) to go undercover to root out a gang smuggling illegal immigrants across the border from Mexico. Brass is sent to prison to meet a member of the gang. From him, he finds out where the gang is based. He shows up and is given a trial run to see if he's trustworthy, then is put on the regular route. Things get tricky when his cellmate gets out of jail and suspects him and again when Brass' friend Gabby shows up, not knowing Brass is undercover. Brass manages to trick gang leader Cameron into flying with him into the U.S. Along the way, Cameron finds out Brass is an agent and they fight, but Gabby saves the day and Brass brings the bad guys to justice.

Review - Secret Service of the Air

Certainly not a deep movie or one to be taken seriously, especially with Gabby along for laughs. There's even a girl who is on screen for maybe two minutes, that Brass marries at the end.
