A question for the historical experts.
During the 1930 England to Australia flight Amy left Singapore and landed at an airfield in West Java before flying on to Surabaya. The only reference I have says it was called Tjormal.
Can anyone confirm this? More especially, can anyone tell me where it is and if it's still an airfield? It's not in the current Aerad..
I'm wondering if it is the old name for Jakarta..
