	FLUG REVUE Datafiles: VFW-Fokker VFW 614
		Studies for the VFW 614 began in 1961, when Weser Flugzeugbau in Bremen and Hamburger Flugzeugbau pooled their engineering resources for the development of a 36-seat airliner, first labelled ERNO 61-4 (Entwicklungsring Nord).
		German LBA certification for the VFW 614 was gained on 23 August 1974, followed by FAA approval on 4.
		Most of the VFW 614 in civil service were quickly retired, and during the last years the major user was the Flugbereitschaft der Luftwaffe at Cologne/Bonn airport.

	Fokker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		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.

		He gained fame with his planes the Fokker Dr.I (triplane) and the Fokker D.VII, with a mechanism that let pilots use machine guns on their planes without shooting their propellers.
		In 1958, the Fokker F27 Friendship was introduced, which became the world's best selling turboprop airliner (selling almost 800 from 1958 to 1986).
		The F27 was followed by the Fokker F28 Fellowship, the Fokker F50, the Fokker F70 and the Fokker F100.

	Airmodel 1/72 Fokker-VFW 614, by Carmel J. Attard
		One of the jet transport aircraft that saw service with the Luftwaffe between the years 1976 and 1999 mainly as a VIP and other transport duties was the Fokker VFW 614.
		The VFW 614 was powered by two 7,280 lb RR/Snecma M45H Mk 501 turbofans that gave it a maximum speed of 457 mph at 21,000ft and a maximum cruise of 449 mph at 25,000ft.
		The VFW 614 had a span of 70ft 6.5 in, length of 67ft 7in and a wing area of 688.89 sq ft.

		The Fokker 100, an up-to date re-engined development of the Fokker F-28 Fellowship, made it's first flight in 1986.
		Fokker built the Fokker 50 as re-engined follow up of the successful F-27 Friendship.
		Only a handful were sold, and it was a reason why the cooperation between Fokker and VFW (West Germany) failed.

		These VLJ business jets will be mostly used for private jets, jet charters and fractional jet ownerships.
		With the HondaJet - Honda decided to go with an unusual over-the-wing engine configuration, a feature developed on the Fokker VFW-614 decades earlier, which allows for more space within the fuselage and reduction in drag at higher speeds.
		The fuselage itself is made from lightweight composite materials, while the wings are made from structurally reinforced single sheets of aluminum.

		Der zweite Grund für die Verlängerung der Entwicklungsperiode war, daß VFW wegen der Entwicklung eines geeigneten Mantelstromtriebwerks erst dann an Rolls-Royce und SNECMA herantrat, als Planung und Entwicklung des Flugzeugs schon abgeschlossen waren.
		Das auffälligste Merkmal der VFW 614 ist die Triebwerkmontage auf Pylonen über den Tragflächen, die deshalb erfolgte, weil zum Einsatz auf schlechten Pisten ein kurzes und kräftiges Fahrwerk verwendet werden sollte.
		Die VFW 614 kann auf Pisten von 1200m Länge - oder weniger - starten und landen und als Passagier- oder Frachtflugzeug mit einer Höchstnutzlast von 3900kg eingesetzt werden.

		The Fokker F28 Fellowship was intended as a jet successor to the F27, but ended up serving a different market sector.
		The VFW-Fokker 614 was a joint venture between VFW in Germany and Fokker in Holland.
		It is very unusual in having its two jet engines mounted above the wing - a device to shorten the length of undercarriage and reduce the risk in ingesting debris from poorly paved surfaces, without having to pay the structural penalty of a T-tail.

		The VFW 614 was the first passenger jet to go into large-scale production in the Western part of Germany.
		The very spacious and comfortably equipped VFW 614 can carry 40 - 44 passengers on a distance of more than 650 kilometers.
		Powered by aero-engines which were developed by Rolls-Royce and mounted atop of the wings, the airplane reached a maximum speed of 735 km/h.

		The new turbo-prop short-haul types like the Fokker 27 and Viscount which were introduced in the 1950s became the main types for many regional airlines where pure-jet aircraft were less economical on very short routes.
		The Herald was a British turboprop designed in competition with the Fokker Friendship regional airliner.
		The VFW-Fokker 614 was a strange concept for a passenger airliner with 2 jet engines mounted on wing upper surface directly opposite the passenger cabin windows!

		Two alternative arrangements suggest themselves: (1) a high wing location with engines mounted beneath the wing or (2) a low wing configuration in which the engines are mounted on top of the wing.
		So far, neither of these arrangements has been utilized on a business jet, although one small transport aircraft (the VFW Fokker 614) has been produced that employs the over-wing-engine arrangement.
		In most cases, the aft-engine arrangement used on business jets forces the horizontal tail to the tip or part way up the vertical tail.

		At this point the new Fokker 70 and Fokker 100 jets replaced it.
		It was originally destined for the state airline BEA and also for the Royal Air Force.
		The aircraft is stretched to give more cabin room for cargo but is much the same as the military 'Herk' flown by the majority of air forces worldwide today.

		The VFW 614 had twin jet engines in pods above the wing, so that the landing gear could kept reasonably short.
		It was not very succesful: only 19 were built.
		To avoid after-sales support costs, VFW retrieved most of the delivered aircraft and scrapped them.

		I sure someone has been on a VC-10, at least!
		Yes but when the TU-144 was sold, for a reported 11 million, the NK-32s were removed since they are "military technology." I have no idea what they were replaced with, or if they were replaced at all.
