Only 3 years late. Thank you all for your contributions. I have now added them. I took a guess at the location of MLD Surabaya Morokrembangan. Can anyone confirm the precise location of this?

Here's the location of the MLD base at Moro Krombangan (today, Morokrembangan):



The image comes from the report of the 1936 RAF/IAL/QEA flying boat route survey (the 'Brackley survey') in the CAHS collection. I've coloured in the sea to make it easier to read the chart and highlighted Moro Krombangan in red.

Note that the civil flying boat service used the docks at Tandjong Perak (today Tanjung Perak), just to the east of Moro Krombangan.

Here's the same area today courtesy of Google Maps:

The Hobsonville (Auckland, New Zealand) ramp is still there, but has recently been close off bacause of its unsafe condition.
