Big Sister No Question About It Flight To Seattle
Moyle and Allen planned to depart from Tachikawa near Tokyo arriving in Seattle possibly by Wednesday morning. A 1800 meter beach takeoff carried 1200 gallons of gasoline to a height of fifty meters before disappearing over the Pacific amid favorable wind and runway conditions. They modified the propeller and tail to gain lift and speed and hoped their 11 500 pound plane with 1020 gallons would fly forty seven hours to claim the 25000 prize from Asahi newspaper for Japan America nonstop flight. Moyle prepared the craft day and night while Allen handled permits and logistics at the Japanese airport.
