The first production FK.58 fighter before its delivery flight from Rotterdam to France, by French air force pilot Capt Perrin. The Dutch civil registration was applied in washable paint. The serial assigned to this airframe was C016. France ordered 50 FK.58s, but only 14 were delivered and they saw little or no action.
