He would often have Chinese copilots; some of these men were required to sit on their hands for when the plane was taking off her landing, because they were so inept.

Then in 1975, after having flown in at least four east Asian countries, Neil found himself to be one of the last American citizens being evacuated from Cambodia. At the time, Neil described that those several days and especially those several hours before he was flown out of the country, were horrifying, because of the Khmer Rouge’s ongoing genocidal murdering of over one and a half million other Cambodians.
