[4K] Fantastic Warbird Fokker D.21 Engine start-up & taxi-run

After 8 years of building this replica of the Fokker D.21 by using the original Fokker design drawings it was time to show this warbird to the public.
After the air raid siren sounded, the Fokker D.21 was started with a sound and an unmissable cloud of smoke. After starting the engine, a taxi run was performed over the grass of Hoogeveen airfield during the Open Hangar Day organized by Egmonds Vintage Wings.

The original Fokker D.21 with number '229' was shot down over Nieuwkoop on 11 May 1940. Pilot sergeant Jacobus Roos barely managed to get to safety with his parachute. The wreck of the Fokker was salvaged in 1993 and can now be found in the "CRASH Air War and Resistance Museum '40-'45" in Rijsenhout near Aalsmeer.
It is a coincidence that I was born and raised in the village of Nieuwkoop, which makes it a familiar story to me.
