Origin[]
After former ranger Jack ‘Arizona’ Bates inherited his uncle's 30,000 acre ranch, his first order of business was to get in a fight with Garson, the crooked foreman, who quits after losing the skirmish. Arizona then meets the other workers including the Kid who tells Arizona that his uncle took up flying before he died and there was a plane in the big barn. After meeting Jim, who was the pilot who maintains the aircraft, Arizona decided to learn to fly as well. After mastering his piloting skills, Arizona decides to use the plane to help to run the ranch and fight off trouble including some cattle rustlers in league with the former foreman, Garison.
