With accompanying illustrations, the Fokker 50 program is described. The Fokker 50 was awarded a type certificate on the 15th May 1987, ending a development program launched in November 1983. The aircraft, which started life as a re-engined derivative of the F27 Mk 500, evolved into a state of the art turboprop airliner making full use of current technology. A major part of the program was an update of the certification base, achieved in close cooperation with the Dutch civil aviation authority. Experience gained during the development process generally confirmed the need for direct interaction between the technology adopted and the evolving basis for certification.
