and Frank R.Ford. Fokker was Dutch and was very active helping
the Germans in WW I with their aviation needs. In 1923, Anthony
Fokker moved to the United States, where he established an
American branch of his company, the Atlantic Aircraft Corporation,
in 1927 being renamed Fokker Aircraft Corporation of America. In the
1920s, Fokker entered its glory years, becoming the world’s largest
aircraft manufacturer by late 1920s. In 1930 this company merged
with General Motors Corporation and the company’s new name
would beGeneral Aviation Manufacturing Corporation (which in turn
merged with North American Aviation and was divested by GM in
1948). A year later, discontented at being totally subordinate to GM
management, Fokker resigned.�������������������������������������������Est.
