The Fokker Spin 2

In early 1911, Fokker came into contact with the German aircraft manufacturer Jacob Goedecker, who was already building aircraft in Nieder-Walluf. Goedecker taught Fokker the tricks of the trade, and thus the second Spin was built at Goedecker's.

Anthony Fokker, 21 years old, earned his pilot's license on May 16, 1911, with this aircraft. He had taught himself to fly.
