 Machine Gunned Plare

"In , m nutes from when we first saw them, they did their bombing and then fhev came down to 50 and D foet of the ground to machine gun the plane. That was the first of sev- eral attacks that day"
 Evacuation of Americans and Chinese National Gov ernment members in the city was organized at once, he said, but flights out of the area were held up un- iii evening to gain the coV- CT of darkness. Chinese land planes, ordinarily us- ing a single unblocked run way, were trundled into the village near by or to the airport edge and cover ed with grass camoufage.
 About the C.N.A.C. pilots eight of them American and four Chinese, Captain Ralph commented:
 They sure did the sweet est job of flying you ever saw. They are used to bad conditions. Bad weather is good weather to them. They used it to avoid en- emy planes, and sometimes take off into 5000 or 4,000 feet of overcast, fly on in- struments for an hour and then come down to check on where they are. ;
 The Clipper crew left Hong Kong on the last plane and flew to Chung king, where their home ward flight lasting seven days began.
 Captain Ralph, who had brought his clipper in from Manila on the day before the war started, was asked if he noted any signs of en emy activities in the China Sea. He denied seeing any thing unusual and com- mented i've never did' on that run.
