Financial suppport for new Fokker Aircraft

The Dutch ministry of finance has reserved a credit of 20 million Euros for the development of a new Fokker aircraft.

Fokker went broke 14 years ago but investment company NG Aircraft of Rosen Jacobson wants to built an aircraft based on the Fokker 100.

NG Aircraft is allready working at this plan for a year and a half and thinks the first aircraft can be ready in five years.

The goal is to develop an aircraft that is far less damaging for the environment than comparable aircraft. The European comity still has to approve the State-support.
