Fokker f-100

The Fokker 100 is a twin-engined, low-wing monoplane. It has cantilevered swept wings and empennage, and semi-monocoque fuselage of circular cross section. The majority of the structure is metal, but extensive use is made of plastics, in flight controls and fairings.


Power is supplied by two rear mounted Rolls Royce turbofan engines, which are equipped with thrust reversers.

An APU, installed in the rear fuselage, provides electrical power, and air for cabin conditioning and engines starting, when the aircraft is on the ground. The APU can also provide electrical power in flight.





Fuel is carried in an integral main tank in each wing, and the center wing tank assembly.

A hydraulically-operated tricycle landing gear, comprising a dual wheel nose gear with hydraulically-operated brakes, is installed on the aircraft. When retracted, the landing gear is enclosed by hydraulically-operated doors. The brakes have an electronically-controlled anti-skid system. Two emergency exits are located, in the over-wing area, on each side of the passenger compartment.

Access to the cargo compartment is provided by manually operated doors at the right hand side of the fuselage, two for the forward cargo compartment, and one for the rear cargo compartment.
