Special Agent Connor O'Connor (Harrison Ford) returns to the tranquil Pennsylvania community of Bird in Hand with one goal: to reunite with his forbidden love interest, Mary (Kelly Maginnis). But Agent O'Connor is unaware of the maelstrom that awaits him. An issue pitting traditional values against modern patriotism has spawned a generational conflict among the Amish: should members of the Amish community be allowed to apply for Officers Training in the United States Air Force?

O'Connor senses the unrest the moment he steps from the carriage in the central-Pennsylvania burrough. Then, he witnesses the unspeakable. At a church social, a young chow-chow canner who dreams of becoming a fly boy is taunted by a community elder: *If God had intended for thee to fly, Ezekial, He would have given thee wings!* The incensed boy lashes out with the fury of a runaway horse team: *And if God had intended for me to can chow-chow, he would have given me hollow fingers capable of dispensing proportional amounts of corn, butter beans, peas, and various spices to create the relish-like stew!* That night, with the community still reeling from the outburst at the church social, a band of renegade Amish punks nearly succeeds in equipping a slow moving wagon with wings and a crude jet propulsion device. The fuse is lit; will the tinder box explode?

Air Force None chronicles the torrid romance of O'Connor and Mary, set against a backdrop of endless town hall meetings and prayer sessions. Starring Chris Farley as Nathaniel, Chris Rock as Thomas, Chris Burman as The Announcer, and Kris Kristofferson as Colonel Christopher, USAF (ret.). Original musical score by Kris Kross. 1997.
