THE 'stretched' two-seat version of the famous Fokker D.VII is given the full DATAFILE treatment by Australian aero-historian Colin A Owers. Unprecedented documentation for the Fokker C.I provides enthusiasts with over 90 photos, most previously unpublished, together with contemporary charts and diagrams from the manufacturers' own archives. Colin traces the full history of the C.I from its origins in WWI to ultimate service in the Netherlands and Denmark.

As well as the book's impressive photo coverage, which includes unique airframe details, there are all-new plans by Martin Digmayer in popular 1:48 and 1:72 scales presenting both Mercedes and Lynx radial powered versions. Jerry Boucher contributes the beautiful cover painting along with three colour profiles that perfectly encapsulate the schemes worn by the C.I during its wartime and post-Armistice service.
