Balto III: Wings of Change

In the town of Nome, sled dogs find their traditional role of delivering mail and supplies threatened by the introduction of airplanes. To determine which method is superior, Balto leads a team of dogs, including his son Kodi, in a race against a pilot named Duke. When the plane fails to reach its destination, Balto suspects the pilot is in trouble and sets out on a rescue mission despite the reluctance of some other dogs.
