| Fokker F.XVIII |
| The Netherlands, 1932 - Because
of its record breaking flight to Java the F.XVIII is by far the most
famous Fokker of the pre-war period. The aircraft was designed rapidly
after the F.XII because of the quick emerging needs for a faster and
even more comfortable aircraft on the East Indies route. Two flights
were memorable with this type: The Amsterdam-Java flight in 1933 (PH-AIP,
'Pelikaan') and the flight to the West Indies in 1934 (PH-AIS, 'Snip').
The F.XVIII had a long history as a reliable workhorse, the last ones
being retired in 1947 (West Indies). |
