On the starboard side it says 'De 2 C's', after the two men that were credited with most of the effort in bringing this aircraft to Europe and restoring her (although I do not recall their full names) On the port side it says "Sarinah" and "plesiran 'neer?". Sarina is the name of a girl. "plesiran 'neer" is a mix of Indonesian and Dutch, meaning as much as "Are you still having fun, Sir?" Ron -- Non urinat in ventum |
