• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Fokker Spin for FSX! (Another Vintage Flyer)

F

FSX68

Banned

At the end of Sept , in 1911, Anthony Fokker left a field near Haarlem in his Spin (Spider) and flew over the city. After a 360 around the Great- or St.Bavochurch he landed save in another field. That performance made his name as an aircraftbuilder.
Haarlem is celebrating of course, with the Fokker Spin Centential. (It's in Dutch, but maybe Google can give some sort of translation ;D)
Some Dutch simmers planned to make the flight in FSX, but there was no aircraft! (The last Spin was made for FS98!)

I had this originally posted under Vintage Flyers, figured it would fare better attention if I put it in limelight under seperate post.
