Taiheiyō no katsugiya (1961)

Tetsuji Tachibana was fired as a pilot after Jim gave false testimony in an accident caused by Captain Jim's intoxication. Only Junpei Nambu, the editor-in-chief of “Kokuikai” (Aviation World), was on Tetsuji's side. Tetsuji questions Jim, but Jim refuses to tell him anything, and the atmosphere turns sour. At that moment, Yosuke Sugie, a former classmate of Tetsuji's at the Civil Aviation College, enters the office.
