Carrying a fake registration, the aircraft is actually PH-GOO.

In 1918, a Hansa-Brandenburg W-12 got stranded near Rottumeroog. The aircraft was interned and studied by the Marine Luchtvaartdienst (MLD, now known as the Navy). The MLD liked what they saw and wanted to license-build the aircraft. A suitable factory was sought and eventually they wound up at Van Berkel, who was/is more known for their scales and meat cutting machines. In 1919-1920, a total of 35 aircraft were built. 15 of them stayed in the Netherlands, the rest went to the Netherlands East Indies. The real W57 (c/n 1) was built in 1920 and written off after a crash near Den Helder.

Delivered to the US Navy in September 1935 as 9993. To several corporations and private owners from January 1946, first as NC39165, later as N39165. She became the world's last airworthy DC-2 in 1970. In 1983, the markings PH-AJU/44 were applied, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the original Uiver winning the London - Melbourne race in the handicap class. The aircraft was ferried to Amsterdam that same year and completed the original air race route in 1984. To the Aviodrome in 1999. She is reportedly still airworthy, although she hasn't flown in a long time.

Ex 44-70509. I also find the background increasingly interesting every time I look. Front row: Fokker Spin III (replica, c/n 5365) and Fokker F-27 fuselage (PH-NIV, c/n 10101). Background: Aeriane Sirocco (PH-2B7, c/n 90-061), HM-14 (G-AEOF, c/n WM.1), Auster J/1 (PH-NFH, c/n 1845, silver fuselage & yellow stripping, with prop), Sagitta 013 (PH-308, c/n 006, white & blue leading edge wings), Schleicher K.8B (PH-393, c/n 8768, red wings & tail), Schleicher Ka-4 Rhonlerche II (PH-375, c/n 3078, white & blue fuselage), Grunau Baby IIb (PH-170, c/n 6052, yellow fuselage). PH-NDC (Fokker S-12) is possibly back there is well, hidden from sight. I think I also see Stearman Hammond Y-1S tails. The yellow metal could be Fairey Firefly TT.I SE-CAU.

A nice replica of The Red Baron's Fokker Dr.I.

Delivered to the USAF in 1949 as 48-0612. Withdrawn from use in October 1967. To Christler Flying Services in July 1970 as N9465. To Beaver Air Spray in July 1979 as C-GXKR. Withdrawn from use and stored at St. Jean, Quebec, Canada. To Conifair Aviation around October 1981 as N749VR. Seen in April 2002 as N749NL at Avra Valley, Arizona. Restored by May 2002 and made its first flight since 1994. The ferry to The Netherlands started on September 15, 2002., routing Fort Worth, Alpena, Goose Bay, Keflavik, Duxford, Manston, Lelystad and Schiphol. Forever a shame she wasnt given a chance to fly.

Ex. 19 Yellow with the Lithuanian Air Force. Now preserved at the restaurant area of the museum.

Ex. USAAF 42-23974, RAF FD938, SAAF 6867, ZS-NJE and G-BVOL (June 1994 - May 1996). When the aircraft first became preserved, it was already clear that it would be unfeasable to make it airworthy again. Although parts of it did become airborne again, after the wings, tail section and undercarriage were swapped with the PH-PBA, to restore the PH-PBA to airworthy condition. The aircraft is named after one of KLM's early days pilots, who has led quite an interesting life (which I only came to know while doing research).

Operated by the Royal Navy as XJ350 in a previous life. To the museum in 1980, where the fake registration PH-MAD was applied.

Operated by the RAF between June 1961 and May 1976 as XN600. Placed on display at the Aviodrome in November 2003.

It was long thought that all pre-war KLM airrcaft were lost, until museum employees got a tip from Venezuelan colleagues during a conference in 1999. 6 months after, the pilot who had flown the Fokker in 1939 was found and thanks to his info, the aircraft was found. The aircraft had been cannibalized by local Indians, but they were willing to trade in their parts. There are videos available of this expidition, which show way more than I could ever write here. The elevated viepoint for this photo also gives a nice impression of the other '100 years of aviation' exhibitis.

Ex. US Army Air Force 42-87261. To the RAF as FR199, where it served between June 1944 and June 1945. The aircraft was damaged, repaired and transferred to the Dutch 320 Sqn (Navy) as A-22 (applied on the aircraft as 1-22). In March 1950, the serial system was revised and the aircraft became M-9 (applied as 13-9). Third serial issued in December 1950 after a complete overhaul at Aviolanda, B-9 (applied as 2-9). Operated from March 1947 until May 1954. After leaving the Navy it went to the Technical University Delft. Converted into a flight simulator. Donated to the museum in 1981.

A lovely line-up of classics in the T2 hangar. The Starfighter first flew in March 1963 and was operated by the Royal Netherlands Air Force as D-8061. The other jet is the PH-XIV, the first built/prototype Fokker S.14 Machtrainer. It was used by the NLR between 1961 and 1966. The background eyecatcher is the PH-DDZ, which has been grounded for a while now. She gave an engine to the PH-PBA to keep her flying, but there now is a good working one available for the -DDZ again. The 2-seater in the foreground is a replica Fokker D.VII, although the engine in front is an original one.

Located in an unlit area of the exhibit hall, it took a 3-minute exposure time and some Photoshop magic to get the photo up to par. SOBEH (Stichting voor de Ontwikkeling en Bouw van een Experimenteel Hefschroefvliegtuig) was founded in 1952 to develop a helicopter. Ater the H-1 followed the H-2 and an improved model, the H-3 Kolibrie was built in series by NHI. Unfortunately the aircraft wasn't a succes and production was halted in 1961 after a total of 11 had been built. The aircraft in the photo was produced by SOBEH and registered between December 1954 and March 1958. Transferred to the TU Delft and later to the HTS in Haarlem. To the museum in August 2001.

Built in 1958. To World Wide Helicopters in October 1961 as N7904C. To an unknown owner by October 1965. On October 31, 1965 the aircraft hit ditches during the landing rollout at/near El Adem, Libya. To the Technische Hogeschool Delft as an instructional frame until January 1989. Then to the Aviodrome, where the markings JZ-PAD were added.

Operated by the Spanish Air Force between December 1954 and June 1973 as T.2B-275. Later marked as 721-16. To Warbirds of Great Britain between November 1977 and May 1985 as G-BFHF. 'N7-AA' markings added in May 1985. To an aircraft museum in/near Marl-Loemuhle (Germany) and marked as D-ADAM. To the Aviodrome in March 2007, where the markings '1Z-IK' were applied. It is now on display in the indoor exhibit '100 years of aviation', with the right side of the aircraft missing.

Delivered to KLM in September 1978. Withdrawn from use and stored at Amsterdam (EHAM) on November 17, 2003. Acquired by the Aviodrome and preserved there on December 17, 2004.

For some perhaps a bunch of junk, for me a Fokker F.VIII. After its life with KLM (as PH-AED), it was sold to the Venezuelan Government in March 1939. In April 1939, the aircraft flew to Gran Sabana to try to find Captain Cardona Puig in the area of Kamarata. The aircraft landed with a tail wind and was unable to stop in time. It ran into a ditch and the left engine caught fite. While the crew managed to put out the fire, the aircraft had to be abandoned. The remains were found in 2001. Recovered by Aviodrome volunteers and transported back to the museum for display.

Once a regularly seen aircraft at Eelde, now stored at Lelystad. On October 9, 2016, the aircraft was flying from Lelystad to Eelde, but returned to Lelystad due to a nose gear problem. The nose gear did deploy but wasn't locked, which resulted in a collapse after touchdown. I can't find any info to confirm, but I doubt the aircraft has since flown.
