Fokker F.XVIII
The Fokker F.XVIII is a three-engined, fourteen-passenger commercial air liner, two of which are used by the Ceskoslovenska Leteck'a Spolecnost (C.L.S.) or Czechoslovak Aviation Company) on its lines from Prague to Berlin and Vienna. These machines however, are now being replaced with Douglas D.C. 2 monoplanes. The Fokker F.XVIII has a large cabin for the fourteen passengers, with lavatory and baggage-hold aft. It is fitted with three 550 h.p. Pratt & Whitney "Wasp" engines, which give the machine a cruising speed of 157 m.p.h. The weight, fully loaded, is 17,310 lbs.
