Finally, your Fokker News has returned! The paper version could not be continued anymore due to various reasons but we have managed to start this section as part of the renewed AIRnieuws website. As you have noticed we are writing this section in English for obvious reasons since we are on the World Wide Web. In the near future we have plans to extend the subjects with more items like pre-World War II Fokker aircraft, F27 & F28 Operator Overviews, Crashes & Incidents, Specials, also Fairchild F-27/FH-227 and of course Pictures, recent and historical ones! The recently formed Fokker News crew (a team of six Fokker specialists!) are currently preparing several items and should be soon ready for publishing at this website!
