Notes
An aerial drama involving two of the highest personages in England and Canada and two Pacific Western Airlines pilots took place this week high over the rugged mountains near Kitimat. Principals were the Duke of Edinburgh, Trade Minister C. D. Howe and pilots Len Fraser and Jack Crosby. When tour officials decided to abandon the use of a helicopter to transport the duke and Howe and their party from Kemano to Kitimat, they called on PWA'S twin-engined Mallard amphibian with Fraser as pilot and Crosby as co-pilot. En route Crosby mentioned that the prince could take over the controls if he wished. The prince took over and then to Fraser's astonishment, he heard the prince ask if he could land the plane There raced through Fraser's mind the importance of the cense.
