Synopsis by Hal Erickson

The owner and head pilot of an "air-conditioned" airport, Popeye is pestered by his 99-year-old Pappy, who insists upon become a flyboy himself. When Popeye tells Pappy to go home and stay home, the disgruntled oldster commanders a spare plane and goes on a joyride himself. But "joy" can hardly describe the terror experience by Pappy as his out-of-control aircraft careens all over the world. . .buzzing a subway, melting igloos, knocking over palm trees, etc. Ultimately, what goes up must come down, and an enraged Popeye is on hand to pick up the pieces. This was the first "Popeye" cartoon to utilize the famous "tooting pipe" opening credits.
