The "Fokker" C.I aircraft was a two-seater mixed construction reconnaissance 1 1/2-plane aircraft. It was an enlarged version of "Fokker's" D.VII aircraft. Tested in Germany in 1918 as the U.38, it went into series production immediately, but was never used in World War I. Fokker continued production in Holland. A total of over 250 aircraft of this type was produced. The C.I could easily be recognized by the fuel tank, mounted on the undercarriage wheel axle and covered by a sleek cowling. According to the manufacturers, this cowling generated additional lifting power. The last example was used by the Dutch Navy as a training aircraft until 1938.
