	fokker dvii
		Fokker's ego and dominating personality frequently led him to understate Platz's role as the genuine innovator of the designs that bore the Fokker name, and he took undue credit for himself.
		Moreover, Fokker understood better than any of his competitors that overall performance was more important in a fighter aircraft than exceptional performance in one or two areas, such as speed or climb rate.
		The Fokker D.VII was brought to the United States after the war and given to the Smithsonian Institution by the War Department in 1920.

		In the 1920s, Fokker's biggest success was the F.VIIa/3m trimotor passenger aircraft, which dominated the European market until the arrival of the all-metal American and German aircraft in the mid-1930s.
		The Fokker factories in the Netherlands were completely destroyed during World War II, and a new factory was built next to Schiphol Airport near Amsterdam, in 1951.
		Fokker was one of the main partners in the F-16 consortium.

	Tonalsoft Encyclopaedia of Tuning - Eivind Groven's schismic temperament, (c) 2004 Tonalsoft Inc. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		It turns out that the interval separating the notes in each triplet of same-letter-name notes (or their enharmonic equivalents) in Groven's scale, which is the Pythagorean comma narrowed by 1
		But since the basis for this tuning is the tempering of a Pythagorean chain, it makes more sense to find a good EDO approximation by examining the size of the "5th" and comparing to EDO equivalents.
		Below is an enlarged reproduction of Code's lattice, showing the 3 commatic unison-vectors which are not tempered out in Groven's tuning: the syntonic comma (red), diaschisma (blue), and diesis (green).

	1st Pursuit Group Records - 1918 - October
		Near Vilosnes-sur-Meuse Lieutenant Chambers observed four Fokkers attacking an Ameican Spad and went to the assistance of the Spad and on his initial attack destroyed a Fokker, the remainder of the enemy formation scattered.
		On climbing away from the balloon Lieutenant Coolidge was attacked by a Fokker which had been protecting the balloon and he in turn shot down the Fokker near Dun-sur-Meuse at 16:39 (confirmed) for his fourth victory.
		After driving the Fokkers off the formation was forced to pass through a heavy antiaircraft barrage and Captain Coolidge’s plane was struck and crashed in flames within the German lines.

		The aircraft built by the company were known as Atlantic or Atlantic-Fokker types until General Motors bought the firm in 1930 and changed the name to General Aviation.
		The XLB-2 was based on the Fokker C-2 transport.
		The C-2 "Bird of Paradise" was the famous aircraft which made the flight from Oakland, California to Wheeler Field, Hawaii on 28-29 June, 1927.

	A gentle introduction to Fokker periodicity blocks, part 2, (c)1999 by Paul Erlich (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Last time we saw how choosing a single "unison vector", or interval too small to warrant a distinction in pitch, reduces the infinite resources of 3-limit just intonation (or Pythagorean tuning) to a finite scale.
		Fokker's solution was to draw a parallelogram having the two unison vectors as sides.
		In this case, two opposite sides of the parallelogram would slope one step to the left and two steps up, while the other two sides would slope four steps to the right and one step down.

	Antarctic Explorers: Richard E. Byrd
		However, Byrd's flights, made with three planes (Ford monoplane, Fokker Universal and a Fairchild monoplane), were much more significant than Wilkins since they were made in higher latitudes and were tied in with ground surveys.
		After several days of exploration in the vicinity, a site was selected on top of the Ross Ice Shelf on the east side of the bay, approximately eight miles from where the ship was tied up and four miles north of Amundsen's base camp, Framheim.
		On January 2 the unloading began and soon teams of men and dogs were hauling supplies over the ice to their new home, Little America.

		The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent inadvertent deployment of the liftdumpers during approach for landing or reduced brake pressure during low speed taxiing, and consequent reduced controllability and performance of the airplane.

	Fokker
		The Fokker name was not openly used until about 1926 because of concern about the public's possible association with the notorious German fighters of WW1.
		Because Edsel Ford donated a Tri-motor for this expedition, Byrd sold the Fokker to the Mechanical Science Corp. The plane was named the Friendship, fitted with floats and used for a transatlantic flight that made Amelia Earhart the first woman to fly (as a passenger) across the Atlantic.
		The first four-engine Fokker design in the US, and the last Fokker design to be built; ff: 8/?/29 (p: Marshall Boggs).

		This product of Fokker did not live up to the expectations of the LVA (Luchtvaartafdeeling, later to become Royal Dutch Airforce) and as a result only one airframe was built and therefor easy to identify: registrationnumber 651.
		Boeing's model 80, along with the Ford and Fokker tri-motors, were a new breed of of passenger aircraft.

		The Army Air Corps bought one Fokker Model F-10A and designated it C-5.
		The aircraft entered service in the spring of 1929 and was used as a staff transport at Bolling Field, Washington D.C. The C-5 could carry 12 passengers (maximum) to a range of about 750 miles at a cruising speed of 140 mph.
		The Fokker C-5 was used primarily as a staff transport but was also briefly used as an engine test aircraft.

	diesis
		The group of the four larger ones are best viewed as variants of one generic size, so that it may be said that Monzo's interpretation of Marchetto's dieses posits two basic sizes, ~22 cents and ~44...47 cents.
		This usage has a modern counterpart in the 31-edo [or 31-ET] system, in which the (slightly-smaller-than-)"fifth-tone" was named "diesis" by Fokker.
		The "s" (= smaller of the two step-sizes) in the fljack scale is another type of diesis, called the "quomma".

		For meantone pair, the transformation would have to be (tone) = (2 -1)(fifth) (oct) (0 1)(oct) which has a determinant of 2, because you can't get a fifth by adding and subtracting tones and octaves.
		The generator is [1 -2],corresponding to a semitone of 15/14, 16/15 or 21/20, and we start the first group at [7 6], corresponding to 5/3, and the second at [2 6], corresponding to 7/6.

		A second main Fokker factory opened in America and Fokker became the largest civil aircraft manufacturer of the twenties.
