Episode list

A B-47 bomber on a routine flight loses contact with it's base. When the Air Force realizes that the plane is out of control and heading for Russia, they Send Steve Canyon up to investigate and try to stop a potential international incident.

Steve is assigned to pilot a plane that drops a test big one. This is a straightforward account of the preparation, dropping, and subsequent testing of an H-bomb and its aftereffects. There's plenty of excellent Air Force archival footage, custom footage (shot just for this episode) and narrative chatter, but also lots of good conventional acting, which gives this a strong documentary flavor. One of the best of the series.

Major Willie Williston is trapped inside his wrecked airplane. Steve Canyon and his men must free the major from the burning fuselage before the jet explodes.

"Little Looey", a firebee guided missile used as a target for Air Force aerial gunnery competition, takes on almost human proportions at Yuma Air Force Base. The maintenance men who service the missile are told that "Little Looey" will be retired with honors if "he" survives 25 missions. Lt. Col. Canyon, engaging in gunnery competition with old Air Force cronies, becomes the key figure in a strange morale problem.

Canyon takes charge of re-educating a "hot shot" team of devil-may-care fly boys to basic Air Force principles: he attempts to bring the flamboyant playboys back to proper perspective.

Canyon flies off on a goodwill mission in the pacific and lands in New Guinea where he is shown a pair of Army dog tags which belonged to a flier listed as missing in action during WW II. Steve investigates, taking the native who found the tags along with him, and runs headlong into trouble with a group of Japanese soldiers who believe we are still at war with them.

In this semi-documentary episode Col. Canyon heads up a USAF aerial task force on an around the world mission to attack "enemy forces" in the Caymen Islands.

There is a question concerning a young lieutenant named Muller at Big Thunder Air Force Base who must choose between loyalty to his country and to his father, who is suspected of being an infamous Nazi war criminal.

Steve is assigned to aid his friend Bradshaw, a test pilot, in a hazardous project to launch F-100 Super Sabres from the backs of trucks with rocket boosters. When Bradshaw's booster fails to detach in flight it places the him and the whole program in danger...but Col. Canyon has a plan.

At William's AFB, Arizona, Canyon investigates a jet crash in which the pilot was killed. The cause appears to be the pilot's fault. Urged by the pilot's father, Steve investigates further.
