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 #27

 


In 1971, for a period of four months, Fokker leased the Fokker F-28 PH-MOL (cn.11003) to the Italian airline Alisarda. The aircraft was delivered on June 1, 1971, and returned to Fokker on September 30, 1971. This lease may have been an attempt by the Dutch manufacturer to pique Alisarda's interest in the Fellowship. 

Is this how the F-28 would have appeared had Alisarda proceeded with the purchase?.
