Description
The twin-engine Fokker F-27 Friendship was developed during the 1950s by the Dutch aircraft manufacturer to provide a valid successor to the old traditional piston engine Douglas DC-3 in service since World War II. The Fokker F-27 immediately achieved a good commercial success in civil and military uses, and it was even produced under licence in the United States. Thanks to its two 2,250 HP Rolls-Royce turboprop engines, the Fokker was able to reach a maximum speed of 460 Km/h. Since its start of production, it has been adopted by a lot of airlines that found in it the best solution for short-haul routes. The adoption of two turboprop engines, compared to traditional piston engines, reduced vibrations and provided improved comfort on board. The plane was very versatile and was widely used for freight transport activities, troop transport duties, and maritime patrol.
