Flying Coffins

The newspaper publisher Britt Reid suspects the Bartlett Flying School of a scheme to collect insurance on both planes and student flyers. As the Green Hornet, Reid visits the flying school, binds Bartlett, head of the school, then forces Bartlett to fly with him in a plane “specially serviced” for a student flyer. Bartlett, facing death, confesses the plane has been fixed to burn in mid-air, and pleads with the Hornet to remove his bonds so he can bail out. Once free, Bartlett treacherously attacks the Hornet. Will the Hornet be able to fight off his attacker?
