EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the sleek lines and elegant design of the Fokker FXII, PH-AFL, as it soars through the sky. Produced by the Dutch aircraft manufacturing company Fokker in 1929, this particular aircraft was a part of the Royal Dutch Airlines fleet, better known as KLM. The Fokker FXII was a significant advancement in aviation technology at the time, with its advanced metal construction and advanced engine design. Capable of carrying up to nine passengers, it was a popular choice for private and corporate use, offering a level of comfort and luxury unmatched by earlier aircraft. PH-AFL was one of only two FXII models delivered to KLM, making it a rare and valuable addition to the airline's fleet. In this photograph, we see the aircraft in flight, its wings outstretched and propellers turning at full speed. The clouds part to reveal a clear blue sky, highlighting the plane's distinctive shape and elegant design. The Fokker FXII represented the pinnacle of aviation technology in its time, and PH-AFL was a proud symbol of KLM's commitment to innovation and progress. Today, this aircraft is a cherished piece of aviation history, a reminder of the exciting and pioneering spirit that drove the development of air travel in the early 20th century.
