Schiphol in 1935, view towards the north. The airfield is becoming a tourist attraction. An old KLM Fokker F.VIIa is presumably carrying out sightseeing flights. Beyond the terrace is a D.XVI fighter. The DC-2 is named Koetilang, Malay for bulbul bird, reflecting the importance of the East Indies to KLM and to Dutch society in general. This DC-2 was destroyed by bombing here on 10 May 1940. Photo from: Amsterdam City Archives

An iconic photo showing the citizens of Albury towing Uiver out of the mud at the local racecourse, allowing the DC-2 to take off and finish in second place in the London to Melbourne Air Race. Pilots Parmentier and Moll had managed a hairy emergency landing on the racecourse, lit by the headlights of private car owners, during the night. Photo from: Wereldmuseum

KLM's London to Melbourne Air Race adventure might very well have ended in disaster when Uiver got caught in a thunderstorm at night. Thanks to the townsfolk of Albury, the DC-2 was able to land safely, and here Capt Parmentier is seen taking off from the racecourse, leaving the rest of the crew and the payload behind. This was probably against the race rules but no one seems to have protested. Photo from: State Library Victoria

This picture shows the original Douglas DC-2, PH-AJU, de "Uiver". An enormous crowd gathered at the airfield of Darmo, Surabaya. The plane made a stop over during its return flight from Australia to Holland after it participated in the Londen-Melbourne race. There are more than enough volunteers to push the DC-2 to its parking spot!
