The Fokker E.III, often known as the Eindecker, was significant in that it was the first aeroplane to have a fixed, forward-firing machine-gun, synchronised to fire through the propeller. It was also very maneuverable and is the aeroplane with which Max Immelmann created the Immelmann Turn, now a recognised aerobatic maneuver. The impact of the Eindecker was so significant that it was known as the ‘Fokker Scourge’ to the Allies after it appeared in July 1915, and only when more advanced Allied types appeared in early 1916 did it’s dominance fall away.
This sole surviving example was captured when it landed at the British aerodrome at St Omer, after the pilot became lost in haze. It was test-flown against several Allied types and eventually joined the Science Museum in 1918. It is on display without fabric in the ‘Flight’ Hall.
