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

Another One

 

 Final destination, Comodoro Rivadavia, Argentina.

Our beloved Fellowship never ceases to amaze us. Yesterday, June 10, 2025, the Fokker F-28 Mk.1000C TC-53 (cn. 11020) completed another LADE (Líneas Aéreas del Estado) passenger flight!

It was service 5U504, departing from Jorge Newbery Airport in Buenos Aires with a final destination of Comodoro Rivadavia and intermediate stops in Mar del Plata and Bahía Blanca.

The return flight was made on flight 5U505, Comodoro Rivadavia (CRD) – Bahía Blanca (BHI) – Mar del Plata (MDQ) – Aeroparque/Buenos Aires (AEP).

 

 Intermediate stop, Bahía Blanca, Argentina.

These are undoubtedly the last passenger flights on a Fokker F-28 in the world!

We must highlight both the nobility of the aircraft and the skills of the Argentine technicians, who make it possible for the Fellowship to continue flying!.
