And the best I can tell, Fokker was somehow involved in development.

Actually it looks a bit like a shrunken Ju-52 with only the engine in the fuselage remaining to me... What do you think? Bear a slight resemblance to the Ju-52 in fuselage design?

That looks like a Bristol Bulldog to me from 1926 although I could be wrong...

Okay, could someone post a picture of the Bristol Bulldog next to the Berliner-Joyce XFJ-1 so that I can see the difference between the two, as they look mighty similar to my eye...

I love an airplane with snappy fairings, Joe - I would love this one.
Are those, in fact, exhaust stacks poking out the front of the speed ring?

So I got it right, wow, can be tricky sometimes with those WW1 planes. Have to find one that you probably might not know about...

What did you get right? The biplane posted is a Bristol Bulldog, not a Hawker Tomtit. The Bulldog saw service in the late 1920s, early 1930s, not WW1!
Got me on that one... I can not find it in any of my books.
