摘要

ALL OVER THE WORLD IN 1937. ROYAL HOUSES PREPARED TO TRAVEL to London for the coronation of Britain's King George Ⅵ and his wife Elizabeth. From Japan, Emperor Hirohito dispatched, by sea, a crown prince and princess as his official envoys-and, to the amazement of many Westerners who considered the Far East a technological backwater, a Japanese newspaper sent a pair of Japanese airmen who made the 9,600-mile journey in a state-of-the-art airplane, the Mitsubishi Ki-15. They arrived a full month before the May 12 ceremony and left for home on May 14, delivering one week later photos and accounts of the London coronation scene to their sponsor in Tokyo. In the process, they became national heroes. The flight of the Mitsubishi Ki-15 was the first of an impressive series of Japanese distance and endurance flights during the buildup to World War Ⅱ-achievements that apparently registered no alarm among Western observers at the time and are often forgotten by Westerners today. A point of national pride in Japan, the flights were a completely Japanese effort: The airplanes and engines were designed and built in Japan, and the Japanese crews trained solely by Japanese instructors. Japan's military then controlled most of the country's aviation, but Japan was an air-minded country and its major newspapers-Asahi Shimbun and Mainichi Shimbun (both still publishing)-maintained aviation departments to speed reports and photographs to their presses, in competition to scoop each other. Not satisfied with simply reporting the news, the papers made their own, capitalizing on their air prowess to stage spectacular flights that generated interest and sales.
