PILOT A VETERAN

: "It was one Of the greatest ex-
amples Of progress that air trans
port has ever known. The crew
Of the plane displayed great
skill and courage"
It was exactly 1892 last night
when the big 14-passenger Douglas
Transport plane took off from
Newark, and she was due to land
at Washington just 80 minutes
later.
At the controls was Jones, vet
eran with more than 10000 flying
hours. There was a storm area
ahead, but the weather reports did
not indicate the severity, and the
flight was authorized.
But once in the air the plane was
forced to buck an 80-mile-an-hour
headwind, and as the storm in.
creased in intensity, Jones turned
hack for Newark.
+. The beam he was riding to
Washington started to fade, and
when he arrived over Newark he
found fog had closed in and he
could not find the landing field.
' Then, laShed by storm and with
his gas supply diminishing, Jones
began his fight with death.
{ An alarm was broadcast to all
radio stations and police.
FLARES INADEQUATE
Finally, at 1:16 this morning
the plane was definitely located
near Philadelphia, and the pilot
.was instructed to try to land at
Camden.
: He crossed over to the airport
(which was shrouded in fog, anc
dropped a flare. It struck just
south of the field; but even the
brilliance of the flares would moi
penetrate the fog, and the plane
swas unable to get in.
: Pilot Jones started on anothel
tack, back across New Jersey, anC
he was warned to be careful no
to crash into The towering Beal
Mountain.
: At 2:53 the plane found itsel
near New Britain, Conn. ant
headed down the beacon for Hart
ford, passing over that city a

: At last there was clear visibility
and at 3:05 the wheels of the BIZ
plane touched on the airport.

Pilot Details Storm Battle
AS Just Another Flight

which carried us beyond Newark,
where we had hoped to land.
From then on we kept our
course south-but mind you, all
the while we were drifting north
in the path of the wind and rain!
The devil of it was we couldn't
see land. We had to take trt
angular readings to find our bear
ings. We knew we were on the
north leg of the radio beam some
where between Albany and Hart
ford.
We saw lights here and there
but could find no suitable land
ing place.
GAS RUNNING LOW
Our gas supply was rapidly get
ting low. I knew we had to land.
When we discovered we were
near New Britain and we decided
to head for Hartford. We notl-
fled Newark by radio to tell the
Rentschler field to put on their
lights.
The ship came down to three
point landing, so here we are.
The most difficult job of the
whole thing was the battle with
the wind. We kept circling around
and getting on the radio beam
path hoping to head south to
Newark after we had been driven
north of New York, but each time
we kept drifting farther north.
Conditions were bit better over
Hartford. Visibility was approx
mately three miles. Ceiling was
about 800 feet.
HOPES EXCEEDED
The ship behaved perfectly. AL
lboard had one thought in mind
we wanted to find ground, a
cow pasture, a golf course or any
broad ground to land. What we
got was an airport.

N. W., attorney for the Maritime
Commission, and a crew of three,
Pilot Fred Jones, Co-pilot James
Garrigan and Steward Edward La
Mieux.
WRITE FAREWELL NOTES
So desperate was the plight Of
the plane that both the passengers
wrote farewell letters to their
wives.
Bane, who boarded a train for
Washington from Hartford this
morning, told his wife over the
telephone that they had given up
hope of safe landing. He said:
ut looked as though it was
all UP with us. Time after time
we tried to find an airport to
land; but fog and rain prevented
us from seeing the fields.
LAS time passed and we knew
the gasoline supply was getting
low, I didn't think we had a
:chance to come through. 1t was
= a terrible experience"
The experience was equally har-
rowing to Mrs. Bane, who sat for
hours at the radio in the family
home, listening to the heroic battle
with the elements.
EXPECTED WORSE
She heard every message sent
by the pilot of the apparently
doomed plane, and the messages
from the ground sent to him, and
as he was unable to land, her
hopes sank. She said:
"Mr. Bane had been in New
York on a business trip, and
about 8 o'clock last night he
telephoned me from Newark
that he was taking the next
plane to Washington, and would
be at home around 10 o'clock.
He had never flown before.
when he did not arrive, I
called the airport, ana was COIQ
that the plane was off its course.
''I then turned on the radio,
and soon picked up the plane,
and heard the messages sent
out. Toward the last the pilot
seemed more worried than ever.
"As he asked directions about
the beam he was on, and where
there was an airport he kept
saying Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!'
"I realized then that his gaso-
line supply must be very low.
He seemed very excited, and
was afraid that the end had
come. Then came the message
he was safe on the ground. I
cannot describe the feeling of re-
lief I felt at that moment"
Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker, fam.
puS World War ace and now gen.
eral manager of Eastern Air Lines,
extended his praise to the crew
of the plane and the ground crews
for bringing the plane in safely.
