flsm (Frank) Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 In 1945, during WW2, in Dutch New Guinea, a USAAF C-47 Skytrain sightseeing flight went horribly wrong. Intending to over-fly recently discovered beautiful Hidden Valley/ Shangri-La, with its stone age-type natives, the aircraft crashed high in the mountains surrounding the narrow entrance pass into the Valley. Only 3 of the 24 on board survived after an agonising 6 weeks in the jungle. Hope you find this interesting. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
