Arthur Hailey: Airport

When Lincoln International Airport is hit by a violent snowstorm, things start to go badly wrong. A plane gets stuck on the main runway and it seems that the airport may have to close. At the height of the storm, a man appears, determined to solve his problems by blowing up a plane. As the night goes on, the clearing of the runway becomes more and more urgent - and people come to some surprising decisions about their own lives.
