EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment a Fokker F.VIIb-3m aircraft, registered as OO-AID (msn 5097) of SABENA, approaches to land at Croydon Airport in the 1930s. The Fokker F.VIIb-3m was a popular and versatile airliner of its time, capable of carrying up to 14 passengers and 2 crew members. The aircraft, which was initially registered as PH-AEP in the Netherlands on September 20, 1929, was later transferred to the Belgian register in the early 1930s. However, the registration was cancelled sometime before September 36, following a crash. The exact date of this photograph is unknown, but it is believed to have been taken around 1934. The Fokker F.VIIb-3m was an essential part of the growing aviation industry during the interwar period, providing essential air transport links between Europe and its colonies. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of aviation and the role that Croydon Airport played in the development of air travel.
