A group of skydiving crooks led by DEA-agent-turned-bad Ty Moncrief (Busey) specialize in landing police roofs and breaking so their evil computer nerd could steal under cover agents' files and sell them into drug lords. Federal Marshal Pete Nessip (Snipes) lost a brother to the team and learns skydiving with the assistance of tough-but-lovable instructor Jessie Crossmann (Butler) therefore he could track down them.
