Photo Comment

Built in 1918 by Fokker. It was most likely confiscated by Allied forces at the manufacturing plant and next shipped to the United States for the U.S. Air Service. Later sold for civilian use, it was featured in several movies, including Hell's Angels (1930). The Museum purchased the aircraft in 1971, and a propeller and engine were donated in 1972 and 1975, respectively.
