Registered 11 Nov.1919. First flew 4 Dec.1919. The company's first pure civil transport prototype, displayed at the Paris Aero Show Dec.1919/Jan.1920. On 10 July 1923, it was damaged beyond repair when it suffered a fuel leak that starved an engine of fuel while en route from Croydon to Paris Le Bourget and was forced to make a downwind landing in a field at Poix de Picardie, Northern France. Although landed successfully, it overran into a sunken road and broke its back. The pilot and mechanic were thrown out but only slightly injured. The seven passengers were uninjured. Cancelled 22 Nov.1923

The Fokker F.IV was a large single-engined airliner. Only two were built for the US Army as their T-2 transport. Lt Kelly and Lt Macready made the first non-stop flight across the US, from Long Island to San Diego, in 64233 on 2 and 3 May 1923. The aircraft exceeded its regular maximum take-off weight by 42%! The two also stayed airborne for 36 hours on 16 and 17 April. The F.IV had a single-seat cockpit so a door to the cabin was installed to allow them to relieve each other, with an extra set of controls in the cabin. The serial 64233 is a sequential number which pre-dates the fiscal year system introduced in 1922. The aircraft is seen with a small Verville-Sperry M-1 Messenger. Photo from: Library of Congress

Flying near NAS Hampton Roads. The Fokker T.II was the first Fokker (torpedo) bomber design to be built. Three examples, built at Veere in the Netherlands, were delivered to the USN in 1922 and received the FT-1 designation. The FT lost out to the Douglas DT in a fly-off.
