Hogan & Duke
Save Christmas
Christmas is going down. Two brothers have to get it airborne again.
A family adventure where grassroots aviation meets Christmas magic in the hills of West Virginia.
Something Just Came Down
It was supposed to be a secret test flight.
Before Christmas. Before the snow. Before anyone was supposed to be watching.
But when Santa's sleigh goes down in the West Virginia hills, brothers Hogan and Duke discover an unconscious pilot, eight very real reindeer, and a machine nobody is supposed to know exists.
Now their airport family has to do what aviation people do best: Figure out what went wrong. Fix what can be fixed. And find a way home.
Where Magic Meets the Flight Line
This isn't the North Pole you know.
It's cracked pavement. Old hangars. Toolboxes. Avgas. Fall leaves blowing across the ramp. Airplanes that have stories in their logbooks and pilots who know that sometimes the only thing between you and the ground is preparation, judgment and the person sitting beside you.
Then something impossible falls out of the sky.
Hogan & Duke: Save Christmas brings Christmas magic into the authentic world of grassroots general aviation — where the extraordinary has to survive contact with the real world.
Real Aviation.
Aviation isn't decoration in this story.
It's part of its DNA.
The airplanes, airport culture, mechanics, decisions, procedures, personalities and problem-solving all come from the world of general aviation.
Because even when magic gets involved, one rule still applies:
Getting into the sky is one thing. Getting home safely is another.
From the Film
"Magic may get you into the sky. Preparation, judgment, discipline and teamwork get you home safely."
