Description
On October 1, 1926, the Swedish Aviation Board received a first tender for C.V from Fokker. In April 1927, Sweden requests a quote for two Fokker C.V-D and two Fokker C.V-E. On October 4, 1927, a final order was placed for the four offered planes and on the same day Fokker announced that the ordered planes would be sent by ship. In January 1928, they arrived in Sweden when SEK 43,134 and 51 öre were paid in customs duty. According to the offer, the price per plan was SEK 33,000-35,000. On January 17, a contract was signed with Fokker regarding the delivery of four more C.V-Es as well as license manufacturing at the air force's own workshops at Malmen (CVM).Malmslätt's central aviation workshop produced a number of Fokker s6bs that were used as tactical reconnaissance planes and were equipped for this purpose with reconnaissance cameras. The font on the propeller is a burning tool that has been used and is impossible to copy in order for it to be identical to the original, and that it is written in Swedish.
Propeller id: D. 3000, ST. 3720, FPL TYPE S 6.B.
Chronograph with serial number, 83930. If it was mounted in the same Fokker plane as the propeller, I want to leave it unsaid. The buttons can be turned, but nothing more happens than ticking.
The propeller weighs 3.5 kg and is 55 cm long, 32 cm wide and 4.5 cm high.
