monthly webmagazine for Fokker airliners fans

Picture of the month *

 

In 1980 Biman Bangladesh Airlines ordered two Fellowships from Fokker. The first one (11172) made its pre-delivery test flights as PH-EXX in the then blue corporate livery before it became S2-ACH in September 1981. The second F28 (11180) followed one month later, in the same color scheme. Sadly, both these Fellowships ended their career with a crash, fortunately without casualties. Later Biman bought four second-hand F28s, which were all painted in the newer livery. (Maarten Visser sr.; Amsterdam, 1981)
