Bookroo's summary

Frank and Joe Hardy's relaxing airshow visit turns into a thrilling chase when a plane is stolen, sparking a crime spree. As they delve into the mystery, the brothers navigate from runways to mountain peaks, suspecting everyone from exhibitors to rival pilots. With the crooks' plans soaring, can the Hardys bring them down before disaster strikes?

From the publisher

WILL THE HARDYS CRASH AND BURN IN THE JEWEL RIDGE AIRSHOW? Attending an airshow to help out their friend Jamal Hawkins and his dad’s air taxi service should be a nice break from the normal grind for Frank and Joe Hardy. But when one of the Hawkinses’ planes is mysteriously stolen – starting a whole wave of crime at the event – the vacation ends, and the hunt for clues begins! The brothers’ investigation takes them from the airport runway to the nearby mountains, and even into the clouds. Who, or what, is behind the trouble? Could it be one of the exhibitors, a jealous rival, or a former hotshot pilot? The crooks’ plans are really taking off – can the Hardys ground these guys for good?
