The Fokker F.VII Friendship flew from Trepassy Harbor, Newfoundland, to Southampton via Burry Point, Wales with Wilmer Stultz, Louis Gordon and Amelia Earhart as a passenger. The aircraft's owner, Amy Phipps Guest, had wanted to become the first woman to cross the Atlantic by air herself, but when her family objected, Amelia was selected to go in her place.

PK-AFB was part of the KNILM fleet until it crashed on February 4, 1938. Sistership PK-AFC visited Australia during the many years Dutch authorities sought approval to add Australia to the KLM/KNILM route map. When approval was finally received, KNILM was using Lockheed 14s and there is no record of -AFB ever visiting Australia. The photo is believed to be at one of the Dutch East Indies (Indonesian) ports used by Qantas on its Australia-Singapore service. Photo from: Hudson Fysh Collection/State Library of New South Wales

Charles Kingsford Smith lands Southern Cross on two engines. Starboard engine shut down when the centre engine exhaust manifold struck the prop (damaged blade pointing down). Port engine then began to run out of oil as -USU headed back to Sydney. Navigator PG (Bill) Taylor climbed out on the struts five times to transfer oil from the dead right engine to the dying left. Taylor awarded George Cross for his bravery. Later pioneered oceanic air routes from Australia to Africa and South America. Smith killed in November 1935.

VH-UMG towards the end of its career when it had the light-coloured fuselage it had when it crashed at Mascot (Sydney International) airport on November 23, 1936. The background appears to coastal with a high headland running down to the sea and a heavy swell rolling in. -UMG was being used for joyflights when it crashed and the location might not be an airfield at all but a flat area near a beach.

The Fokker C-2 is a variant of the successful Fokker F.VIIa-3m, with a larger fuselage and upgraded engines. Three C-2s were delivered to the United States Army Air Corps in 1927, serialed 26-202 to 26-204. The first of them, 26-202 as shown here, was modified to a long-range version and fitted with a larger wing (21.7m instead of 19.2m). It was reportedly named "Bird of Paradise" (but apparently not carried) and used to make the first transpacific flight, 3860 km (2,400 miles) from Oakland to Honululu, on 1 June 1927. Photographer unknown.
