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

Parade

 

As is the case every May 1st, a date that has marked the Air Force's history, a ceremony was held to commemorate the anniversary of the institution's Baptism of Fire during the Battle for the Falkland Islands in 1982. The commemorative ceremony took place in the morning at Morón Air Base.

Among the aircraft participating in the air parade were the Fokker F-28 Fellowship T-51 (cn. 11203) and TC-53 (cn. 11020).




 

Days prior to the parade, the aircraft conducted practice drills on April 29 and 30, 2025.

We must not fail to mention that half of all F-28s in service worldwide participated in this parade!.

 Only four Fellowships remain in service worldwide: two in Argentina (T-51 and TC-53), one in Colombia (FAC1041), and one in the Philippines (1250).
