Two mechanics using a plane sim liar to that from which Lowenstein disappeared, with the motor running at full force, found that the air pressure was so great that their combined strength was Just sufficient to open the door wide enough to permit one of them to pass through it.

Paris. Berlin and Brussels. One suggestion was that Lowenstein never left Croydon.

The Daily Express quoted an unidentified intimate friend of Lowenstein as saying the Belgian was subject to sudden heart attacks, due to an abnormal blood pressure. The finding of his collar and tie in the plane suggested to the friend the possibility that Lowenstein had ripped these off to gain relief from a sudden attack. Finding this insufficient, he was thought to have forced open the door, splintering the wooden frame, to get fresh an, collapsed from the exertion and plunged to his death.
