Rare photo of the Focke-Wulf A 28 Habicht [Hawk] D-1664 (later D-OXYK), Werknummer 60, taken in 1929 (location currently unknown). D-1664 was operated by Norddeutsche Luftverkehr AG and by Luftverkehrsgesellschaft Wilhelmshaven-Rüstringen mbH, flying primarily to cities and islands in Northern Germany.
The A 28 was an improved version of Focke-Wulf's earlier A 20a passenger transport, with positively benign flight characteristics. It was powered by a Gnôme-Rhône Titan engine and carried five passengers and one pilot. Four passengers were seated in the cabin, while the fifth was sitting next to the pilot. D-1664 was the fourth and last aircraft of the small A 20 family. (German Aviation 1919-1945 collection)
