Bill Costen was a talented athlete, and a former Buffalo Bills player. But when tragedy ended his career as a professional football player, he turned to the skies, becoming the first African-American Hot-Air Balloon Master Pilot ever.
We get to see how a man who was talented on his feet made the transition to the sky. We learn more about his career as a master pilot and meet his fellow hot-air balloon pilots that helped him on his transition from professional football. His story is told by his daughter, award-winning filmmaker Chantel Potter.
