Equipped with Fireflies, VSQ 7 was sent to Mokmer, Biak Island in 1955 to defend the western half of New Guinea which the Dutch claimed was a separate colony and not part of Indonesia. Both these two airframes were scrapped at Biak early in 1959. Photo from: Pabo collection This photo was added on 25 June 2019, and has since been viewed 2508 times. |
