PS are F28 Banned from flying in Europe dont see any pictures off them or seen them?

james

How should I know? 😀 I thought you or tenthije were experts on this subject! Checking Airliners, there are only a couple of sightings over the last couple of years, so maybe there is a reason that we don’t know……….

There should be on your ISP’s help pages something along the lines of “how do I edit my web space?” or more techy “How do I FTP” (file transfer protocol). Who are you with?

So if I reduce my quota below 5 MB, I can post a photo, but the deleted photos on the best forum will not appear?!

I am with AOL but I guess they are not my ISP (?), it is probably Telecom (T.Com,de). :confused:

The F28 was designed specifically to operate from unprepared strips, and to this day continues doing so all over the southern hemisphere. Most likely Fokker was trying to see if the F100, loosely based on the F28, could perform the same trick. As the photog said this was a test flight. Also notice the dutch registration.

Hi NF, the WebMaster has had to take some action on this because the system running the forum server has maxed out its disk space. I am not sure exactly what quota has been implemented….I’ll find out for you.BR

Thanks, I understand disk space/bandwith problems almost! The sum of my attachments amounts to 6.92 MB and when I tried to upload a photo of 65.2 KB, the message is that I am 1.98 MB overlimit. This bit of computer maths is beyond me. I assume the maxing out is a new problem not previously encountered but I would guess this would most affect the airline image threads which are predominately large photos.

I have a free Photobucket account which is obviously limited in its capacity and when the older items are deleted, I believe they cannot be accessed from a posted link?

How would I ascertain any space allocated by my ISP? Cheers!

I believe it was, the 737 was available with a ‘rough field’ kit to customers…

Yes, a 732 belonging to Cameroon Airlines was one such a/c that had a reinforced landing gear. There were holes on the leading edge to blow air forward to avoid ingestion of FOD.

Dont the Fokker 28 in africa do that aswel T/O on dirt strips?

James

Yes, the F.28 was specifically designed for bush operations.

What’s ‘OFM doing in Oz?? 😮 Has it been sold?

Yes, you will probably never see it in the Northern Hemispere again. It now belongs to the Salvation Army and the site below is very interesting for a history of the planes used by the Army.

PZL M15 Belfegor. As usual.

Yes, that one gets another vote! (Believe it or not, a jet biplane!)
