Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Ty Hardin, star of the popular 1950s TV western Broncho, followed the lead of several of his contemporaries by appearing in low-budget European actioners in the 1960s. The Italian/Spanish Ragan casts Hardin as a mercenary pilot. At present operating out of South America, Hardin is hired to rescue the exiled president of a banana republic. Along for the ride are Antonella Lualdi and Jack "Giacomo" Stuart. Like many of these "runaway" productions, Ragan quickly made back its cost in Europe, then went directly into the American TV-syndication pool.
