Flight Of The Lawnchair Man tells the story of Jerry Gorman, a man from Passaic, New Jersey, who dreams of flying – despite being clinically dyslexic and none-too-bright. His girlfriend Gracie gives him the courage to follow his dreams and fulfill his “Jerriosity.” When every other avenue fails him, Jerry has a brainstorm. He ties 400 helium-filled balloons to a Wal-Mart lawnchair and takes off into the sky. While Gracie fends off a zealous FAA Agent on the ground, Jerry floats blissfully over New Jersey ever higher in the stratosphere. There he encounters Leonardo Da Vinci, Amelia Earhart, and Charles Lindbergh, who encourage him to keep flying and never to land. Jerry must ultimately decide whether to return to Gracie on the ground or keep flying and join the greats of aviation in the sky.
