Just having fun with the Fokker, I like to be able to taxi around with my planes and this one only had the skid so I decided to add the tail wheel. I don't think it made any real difference in take off and landing. The wind flipped it over in the beginning. That would have happened with the skid too. Thanks to Bill for videoing and subscribe for more fun :) Thanks for watching.

The Fokker Dr. I Dreidecker (triplane) was a World War I fighter aircraft designed by Reinhold Platz and built by Fokker-Flugzeugwerke. The Dr.I saw widespread service in the spring of 1918. It became renowned as the aircraft in which Manfred von Richthofen gained his last 20 victories, and in which he was killed on 21 April 1918.
