ANOTHER instance of a Hun airman surrendering in mid-air was mentioned in a despatch from Mr. Hamilton Fyfe to the Daily Mail on May 23rd. He says : In a fight a day or two back the machine gun of a German pilot jammed. He made an effort to repair it; then, being unsuccessful, he put up his hands. After that he dived and our man followed him, but in diving the enemy airman lost control of his machine and landed very badly. He was dead when his pursuer came upon the scene. A Contretemps.AN extraordinary incident was reported by the Daily Mail correspondent in Paris on May 28th. He says a Belgianairman, Gheude, who specialises in the destruction of German balloons, was flying above one preparatory to attacking it,when the two balloonists took to their parachutes. The balloon sjiot up and struck the aeroplane, and was torn topieces on the propeller. It sent the plane spinning earth- wards, =but by a miracle the machine righted itself and Gheudelanded safely, and saw the ballcon in flames in the sky. 617
