There are a lot of photographs and details around of replica Fokker Triplanes,most of which differ in many aspects from the original machines,after a bit of research there is one that stands out as being the most faithful of replica machines,this is N864DR which is now somewhere within the Australian War Memorial collection complex of historic aircraft.
This particular aircraft was painstakingly built for the film 'The Great Waldo Pepper' then she became the property of Neil Cottee in Australia and registered as VH-ALU,then presented to the Australian War Memorial in Canberra.
What makes this example stand out and shine is that she was built from the original Fokker drawings.
Now if only we have someone here who lives near that wonderful museum who would take some pictures of her for us ? if it is possible to take a cockpit shot then that really would be a bonus ! Thank you.
