About the artwork
Dutch glory: Fokker F-27 Friendship/Troopship (C-31A).
Registration: 85-1608.
This Fokker is a military version of the Fokker F-27 Friendship. This version is referred to as Troopship and the Americans gave it the type designation C-31A. This particular aircraft was built by Fokker at Schiphol-East in 1984/1985 with construction number 10668.
The Troopship was given the temporary registration PH-EXJ on 2 May 1984, which remained on the aircraft until 28 November 1985. On that day, the aircraft was given registration PH-FUB to receive its US military serial number the same day. Subsequently, the aircraft was delivered to the United States Army as C-31A. At the U.S. Army, it received registration number 85-01608 and the nickname 'Excalibur'. This F-27, together with another second F-27 (85-01607, c/n 10652, ex PH-FUA/PH-EXB), was delivered to the U.S. Army.
In October 2019, the aircraft was bought through an auction by the Flying Dutch Cultural Heritage Foundation.In November 2020, the aircraft landed at Lelystad Airport.
This photo was taken during the Fort Worth Alliance Airshow on 19 October 2019.
