Fokker E.V/D.VIII

This book in the popular Polish Wings series tells the story of the famous German parasol-winged WWI fighter monoplane in Polish Air Force service.
The Polish Air Force captured 17 of these Fokkers, but only seven (six E.V and one D.VIII) were in airworthy condition. All were used against Bolshevik forces in the Polish-Soviet War of 1919-1920.
Lieutenant Stefan Stec earned the first kill for the Polish Air Force, by shooting down a Ukrainian Nieuport fighter on 29 April 1919. In 1921, the remaining Fokkers were withdrawn from front-line units and transferred to the Szkoła Obsługi Lotniczej (Air Personnel School) at Poznań-Ławica airfield.

The book includes over 120 photographs and nearly 30 colour plates to profusely illustrate these aircraft. Their technical details, military markings and maintenance stencils are shown in detail.

De Fokker D.VII in dienst van de Nederlandse militaire luchtvaart

In 1918 lanceerde Anthony Fokker een nieuw één persoons jachtvliegtuig: Fokker D.VII. Een toestel dat vanwege zijn onorthodoxe constructie en zijn onnavolgbare vliegkwaliteiten in de laatste fase van de Wereldoorlog geschiedenis heeft geschreven. Zelfs de geallieerden waren van mening dat de Fokker D.VII tijdens de oorlog het allerbeste jachtvliegtuig aan het Westelijk Front was!

En zelfs nog jaren later heeft dit bekende Fokker-ontwerp een voorbeeld functie in de internationale vliegtuigindustrie vervuld. Lees alles over de geschiedenis van de Fokker D.VII in dienst bij de Nederlandse luchtstrijdkrachten.
