The Fokker 100 is a medium size twin-turbofan airliner from the Fokker company. Low operational costs and almost no competition in the 100-seat short-range class made it a best seller when it was introduced in the late 1980s, but improved models of the Bombardier CRJ200 and Embraer ERJ 145 family affected sales and Fokker became insolvent. Production ended in 1997 with 283 airframes delivered. In August 2006, 229 Fokker 100 aircraft remained in airline service with 47 airlines around the world General characteristics Crew: 2 flight crew, 2 to 3 cabin crew Capacity: Passenger capacity: 85 to 122, 107 typical Length: 35.53 m (116 ft 6 in) Wingspan: 28.08 m (92 ft 1 in) Height: 8.5 m (27 ft 10 in) Empty weight: 24,272 kg (53,510 lb) Loaded weight: 43,390 kg (94,997 lb) Useful load: 11,563 kg (25,492 lb) Max takeoff weight: 43,390 kg (94,997 lb) Powerplant: 2× Rolls-Royce Tay Mk. 650-15 or Tay 620 turbofans, 67 kN (15,100 lbf) each * Horizontal stabilizer span: 10.04 m (32 ft 11 in) Fuselage diameter: 3.30 m (10 ft 10 in) Performance Never exceed speed: 320 kn / Mach 77 Maximum speed: 310 kn / Mach 75 (845 km/h, 521 mph) Cruise speed: Mach .73 (755 km/h, 466 mph) Range: 3,111 km (1,680 nmi, 1,933 mi) Service ceiling: 35,000 ft (11,300 m)
