Re: Indonesian Dakota shot down by Dutch Neptune

Hi,

Back to the original question. I found the pilots name with the help of Google´s translator when I read about the Dutch Submarine Hunter Friesland (http://www.collectie.legermuseum.nl/...n/i001999.html): "On May 17, 1962 shot the pilot of the Naval Air H. Moekardanoe his Neptune Dakota down an Indonesian who then could make an emergency landing at sea. The seven crew of the aircraft were picked up by the Friesland and Fak Fak put ashore. "
You get soem "funny" translations when using this tool.

I am still interested in more details.

Regards
Peter
