In late 1992, Dutch aircraft manufacturer, Fokker, began developing a new aircraft to replace the aging Fokker F28. In addition to being faster and more fuel efficient, the company listened to airlines looking for something larger than a Fokker 50 or ATR-42 but smaller than the Boeing 737 or McDonnell Douglas MD-80. Building off the success of their previous aircraft, the Fokker 100, the team sought to make the latest and greatest, the Fokker 70.
