fokker f27 3D Model

the fokker f27 friendship is a turboprop airliner designed and built by the dutch aircraft manufacturer fokker. design of the fokker f27 started in the 1950s as a replacement to the successful dc-3 airliner. the manufacturer evaluated a number of different configurations before finally deciding on a high wing twin rolls-royce dart engined layout with a pressurised cabin for 28 passengers.

in 1956 fokker signed a licensing deal with the us aircraft manufacturer fairchild for the latter to construct the aircraft in the usa. the first u.s.-built aircraft flew on 12 april 1958. fairchild also independently developed a stretched version, called the fh-227.

at the end of the fokker f27s production, 793 units had been built (including 207 in the usa by fairchild), which makes it the most successful turboprop airliner of all time. many aircraft have been modified from passenger service to cargo or express-package freighter roles.
