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

In September 1973, Fokker conducted a promotional tour to Brazil, where they  took the opportunity to show case the Fokker F-28 Fellowship.

The Fokker F-28 Mk.1000 Fellowship PH-ZAV (cn.11032) landed in Brazil on September 11, 1973. Three days later, on September 14, it participated in an air show in the city of São Paulo. Between September 14 and 23, 1973, the first international aerospace show was held at São José dos Campos International Airport in the São Paulo metropolitan area, located 90 kilometers from São Paulo.

Finally, on September 24, 1973, the PH-ZAV performed demonstration flights for VARIG, VASP, and the Brazilian Civil Aviation Directorate.

What would have happened if VASP had purchased theFokker F-28 Fellowship?.
