Is it just me that thinks this was stupid

In a previous article, "Dudley Henriques" said:
There's a great story about the crew of a Pan Am Stratocruiser I think it
was, who were low on fuel and a long way out over the ocean. They let down
to within a wingspan's distance over the water, leaned it back a ton, played
with the RPM, and made it home.
Can't remember the source of the story, but I do remember reading it a long
time ago.

Sounds like an Ernie Gann story.
