SP-ABC Fokker F.VIIb-3M
(c/n 3)

LOT was originally founded as
Aerolot in 1925 flying Junkers F.13s on a route from Warsaw to
Vienna. In 1929 the Polish
government nationaled the airlines and former Polskie Linje Lotniczie
(LOT). The above machine was one of some 14 Fokker
F.VIIb-3Ms built under license by Plage
&
Laskiewicz for LOT in 1929. For some reason this particular
machine only operated with LOT
for
a couple of months and was then sold to Sabena as OO-AIG.
It was one of the aircraft
commandeered
by the Nazis at Haren Airport, Brussels, in 1940. This
image is from a pre WW II
Fokker
pamphlet.
