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

Never delivered #23

 


The Fokker F-28 Mk.1003 PH-MOL (cn.11003) was the first production model and, from the moment of its rollout, it never stopped flying; it carried out demonstration tours, test flights, and attended air shows.

In September 1970, it was at the Farnborough Air Show, where it was spotted between September 10th and 13th, 1970. That same year, it also completed a series of flights to be showcased across Europe.

On October 19th, 1970, the Fokker F-28 made its first landing in Salzburg, Austria. The flight was operated by the PH-MOL and was almost certainly a promotional flight.

What would have happened if Austrian Airlines had purchased the Fokker F-28 Fellowship?.
