The Spin 3

The Fokker Spin 3

Flying in Haarlem
Famous is of course the flight on August 31, 1911 in Haarlem on the occasion of Queen's Day, in which Fokker flew a Spider around the church tower of the Sint Bavo church.
Even after that, in the first week of September 1911, Fokker gave several demonstrations.
There is a memorial stone in Haarlem on the spot where the Spin met Fokker took off.
