THE CINE-TECHNICIAN
March-April, 1952
reports on sea conditions and gave the final advice, and chartered the tug which enabled us to be on the spot for the sinking. During all this, Ken Hanshaw was dug in at Exeter Airport, making flights over the area spotting the "Flying Enterprise ' twice, and in the very early hours of Friday morning he was able to fly back to London with all the negative.
The Laboratory, Cutting, Editing and Recording staffs worked wonders and enabled Movietone to be first in the field in showing the sinking of the " Flying Enterprise " in the London cinemas at 6 o'clock in the evening.
In conclusion, we would like to thank the makers of " Kwells."
