In the Air Battle over the Taiwan Strait in 1967, Lt. Col. Yang Ching-tsung, like Hu Chih-shuang, went up to meet the Chinese Communist MiG-19's. Even as the whole country rejoiced at the news, Yang went down into the sea while flying back.
同在民國五十六年一月十三日的台海空戰中，和胡世霖一同迎戰中共米格十九的楊敬宗，在全國捷報欣喜時，卻在返航時不幸落海失蹤。
