This one was damaged and ferried back from Africa with the nose doors removed and nose gear fixed down.

How about almost all of a photo of a very good model of an F-28, in a display case at, City of Norwich Aviation Museum …. I think you can guess which colour scheme it may be in ??

Nice one Keith, I wouldn’t mind giving that a home! Somewhere, I’ve got an Air Anglia flight bag which has an F28 on it. There used to be a nice Air UK F28 model in a large Perspex ball on display in the airside shopping area at Schiphol

Correct me if I am wrong but I was under the impression that NLM has always been a subsidiary of KLM.

Well if a ‘Flying Dutchman’ like civilspotter couldn’t come up trumps with Fokkers, there would be something badly wrong!! :)….excellent stuff!

A lovely looking jet. I was always amazed when I was working the Linjeflyg examples, how much room there seemed to be in the cabin, and on the flight deck come to that. The crews always said that it was a delight to fly.

Iberia LHR 1970

Nice! The Braathens and the Iberia. Thanks Longshot! I think your Iberia Fellowships are the only pictures I have come across of this little aircraft. I think Iberia had three for crew familiarisation use, they were regulars at Heathrow I think, for a while. I recall seeing it flying over more than once and thought it was a pretty little airliner.

The ones I recall are the Braathens Fellowship at Gatwick and the Iberia (crew training) Fellowships at Heathrow.

If you’ve got the money, the F-28 build licence is available to sell.
Nice set of shots again.

Did you actually do any Piloting LoL?
