The aircraft was used as demonstrator for some time. A few countries were interested in using the G.I as a dive bomber and '302' was equipped with the necessary modification for testing this. However the dive bomber vertsion never went into production. '302' was destroyed in a bombing on Waalhaven. Of the 22 operational G.I's, only 9 could be immediately be dispatched after the German surprise attack on May 10, 1940. A true scale replica of a Fokker G.I. ('330') is on display at the Militaire Luchtvaart Museum. The real '330' was part of the 3 JaVA at Waalhaven.

The D.XVII was the successor of the D.XVI, the latter not being a success with lots of crashes and engine troubles. After a short trial period, 10 aircraft were ordered. Including the prototype, they were registered 201-211. According to ASN, '201' was lost while performing aerobatics on May 23, 1936. Both wings broke off at 6000m. The pilot managed to parachute to safety.

As May 10, 1940 passed, only 7 were left in service (202-205, 207, 209 , 210). The Air Force training base at Texel was attacked on this day, during which 204 was likely damaged. From the remaining 6 fighters, 202 and 203 were hit by friendly fire. During other non-operational movements, a further 2 were damaged. Only 1 mission was flown; 205, 209 and 210 were scheduled on a mission to Grebbeberg, where they were to support 4 C.V's and a C.X in a tactical ground support mission. But 209 had engine troubles at the start and didn't participate. The mission was a failure due to several reasons.

The old fighter wears the orange triangle markings introduced 1 October 1939 but it is listed as withdrawn that July. Perhaps it found a non-flying retirement job.

14 Fokker D.XVI's (275 - 288) were delivered, of which the first few aircraft had a Jaguar engine. They were troublesome engines which often caused problems and the need for a revision well before the indicated maximum flight hours of the engine. 277 was equipped with a Panther engine in July 1932 and set an altitude record (9587 m / 31,453 ft) in June 1932. In 1935 the aircraft was equipped with a different Panther engine and a three-bladed prop (with no armament). The aircraft was eventually taken by the Germans at Texel. The pilot here is Gerhard Sandberg.

10 D.XVII's were ordered by the Air Force (201 - 210) and 207 was built in 1933. In March 1939 207 was part of the 2 JaVA, based at Waalhaven. On May 12, 1940 3 D.XVII's took off for Ruigenroek, but all 3 experienced landing incidents. 203 braked too hard and ground looped, 207 undershot the runway and 205 suffered landing gear damage when running into barbed wire. 203 and 207 were write-offs.

Still with an Italian test serial.

True serial is K-3003.
