The Flight of the Phoenix

About

A cargo aircraft crashes in a sandstorm in the Sahara with less than a dozen men on board. One of the passengers is an airplane designer who comes up with the idea of ripping off the undamaged wing and using it as the basis for a replacement aircraft they need to build before their food and water run out.

The vast, unforgiving Sahara becomes a claustrophobic arena of desperation after a cargo plane goes down in the dunes. Survivors must scavenge every scrap of wreckage to engineer a makeshift flying machine before the desert heat claims them.
