What? Where? When? T'was a Fokker!

摘要

Regarding your puzzler in the FlyPost pages in the February's issue - I believe that the aircraft is a Fokker T.IV. A dozen were built, and delivered from 1927 to August 12,1930, to the Royal Netherlands Naval Air Service for use in the East Indies. The first aircraft, presumably the prototype, T-1 was ordered in December 1926; the next six (T-2 to T-7) in February 1928, and the last five (T-8 to T-12) in December 1929. The T.IV was a three/four seat floatplane torpedo bomber/ recce type fitted with Lorraine engines - as illustrated in the magazine.
