new-build WWI Fokkers (link to Fokker-Team-Schorndorf)

Sat Jan 23, 2010 4:40 am

been following this organization's Fokker DVII build on the Aerodrome forum for a few years, but just stumbled onto this dedicated site. If you root around there are links to the different projects as well as a few other forum threads.

The dedication to absolute authenticity is quite remarkable, covering not just the materials used but the techniques employed in fabrication; even the drawings are all done by hand. The end products seem incredible. Lots of photos of all aspects of construction, as well as load testing and engine run-ups etc.

If this has been covered before my apologies, but for those who haven't seen it it is worth a look, even if you only have a passing interest in Great War aircraft.

cheers
