Won in the Clouds is a 1928 American silent film directed by Bruce M. Mitchell and starring Al Wilson.

[4][5]A family diamond mine in South Africa causes great problems to owners Dr. Cecil James (George B. French) and his daughter, Grace (Helen Foster).

After becoming a flying instructor and a short period as manager of the Mercury Aviation Company, founded by one of his students, Cecil B. DeMille, Wilson became more and more skilled in performing stunts, including wing-walking, and left the company to become a professional stunt pilot, specializing in Hollywood aviation films.
