First native to fly an airplane in Indonesia edit

I could not find this mentioned specifically in the available literature, but it looks likely that he was also the first native of the Indies to fly an airplane in the Indies. As far as I know when he flew his planes first in the DEI (Surabaya, Java) there were only foreign pilots active in the south east asia region (1913-1914). Wld be nice if someone can track down and cite a ref for this. krgds, --KARL RAN (talk) 20:49, 13 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
