Welcome aboard


The great success that Fokker achieved with its F27 model encouraged the Dutch manufacturer to go one step further. In this way, in Apr1962 the new project was announced: The F28 Fellowship.
On the occasion of the 57th anniversary of the prototype´s first flight, -May 9, 1967-, we glad to invite you to the launch of this new Blog fokkerfellowship28.blogspot.com, dedicated absolutely to the Fellowship.
We invite all those who are passionate about this small Dutch colossus to share their experiences, photographs, or information in this space. The site is under development, and we hope all readers will like it.
Welcome aboard

LTU - Lufttransport Union


    
LTU was established in May1955 as Lufttransport Union and started operations in Frankfurt. In 1956 it began operating charter flights. The initials LTU stand for the German phrase LuftTransport-Unternehmen which translates to "air transport enterprise". LTU had been headquartered in Düsseldorf since 1961. Over the years, LTU became one of the biggest and most renowned German leisure airlines and operated worldwide charter flights from many German airports, but mainly from its traditional main hub at Düsseldorf. Between 1969 and 1974 it had five Fellowships in its fleet, including two of the prototypes rented by the manufacturer. (PH-ZAA/ZAB).
