High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! PK-AFV, also known as Pelikaan and previously registered as PH-ALP, was a Douglas, and DC-3 twin-propeller-engined airliner, operated by KLM and its Asian subsidiary, KNILM from 1937 to 1942. The aircraft is sometimes incorrectly referred to as a Dakota or C-47, which were names given to military variants of the DC-3.On March 3, 1942, while on a flight from Bandung, in the Dutch East Indies (later Indonesia), to Broome, Australia, PK-AFV was attacked by Japanese fighter planes; it was crash-landed on a beach near Broome. Four passengers died of bullet wounds or as a result of the crash. The cargo included diamonds worth an estimated A 150,000-300,000 (now an approximate A$20-40 million). The majority of these diamonds were lost or stolen following the crash. Their fate remains an officially unsolved mystery.
