Luva Aircraft

Welcome to the site, where u can find information about every aircraft the Luchtvaart Afdeling (Netherland's Airforce during WWII) used.
That is, the ones that were stationed in Holland or in the Dutch East Indies.
Of almost every aircraft I've found a picture. And of every aircraft I've found some informatoin. Feel free to use anything that u find at this site, for whatever purpose u would like. I hope you well enjoy viewing this site, as much as I did collecting all the information.
I will try to update this site regullarely. And I will go on to try and find pictures of the Fokker D-XVI and Fokker C-IX.
If u've got any information about any of the aircraft listed below, or maybe others, that I haven't found myself, feel free to send it to my e-mail address: JB_007_PUNISHER@hotmail.com
And I will put it online as soon as possible.
Don't forget to sign my guestbook, so I know what you think off this site.
