The Fokker F28 Fellowship was Europe's pioneering short-haul regional jet, designed to serve small airports that larger aircraft could not access. First flown on May 9, 1967, it featured high-mounted wings, twin rear-mounted Rolls-Royce Spey turbofan engines, and seating for 65 to 85 passengers depending on variant. Measuring approximately 89 feet in length with a 77-foot wingspan, the aircraft was manufactured by the Dutch company Fokker through an international partnership with German MBB and Northern Ireland's Shorts.
