The Blue Yonder is a 1985 American science fiction adventure film directed by Mark Rosman and starring Peter Coyote, Huckleberry Fox, Art Carney, Dennis Lipscomb, and Joe Flood. It was written by Mark Rosman and produced by Alan Shapiro and Annette Handley. The film is also known as Time Flyer.[1] The film's premise is about Jonathan Knicks, an 11-year-old boy who travels back in time from 1985 to 1927 via a time machine built by family friend Henry Coogan from the theoretical blueprints of Jonathan's own grandfather. There Jonathan meets his less than illustrious grandfather, Max, and must desperately find a way to prevent Max's fatal attempt at a solo trans-Atlantic flight and invariably change the course of history in the process. Max had perished trying to beat Charles Lindbergh in being the first to fly across the Atlantic Ocean solo.[2]
