Fokker D.21 229 – Posts | Facebook

All efforts over so many years culminated in the short first flight of the PH-XXI / 229 from Hoogeveen (EHHO) in the evening of May 23rd, piloted by Jac van Egmond jr. Actually on Tom’s 21th Birthday!

A unique moment in the Dutch aviation history! And the Fokker history!

We did…. We’ve got flying Fokker D.21 again after 82 years…

Utterly magnificent, I’ve been following this for years (had the Matchbox model kit as a kid so have long had a soft spot for the type) and it’s been amazing to see her fly again. Congratulations Jack and team!!
