Does anybody know if there are still any Finnish C.X left in one piece?

Very nice! What aircraft is photo 19 in Post 124? It looks French but the canopy is throwing me off.

Doesn't look like it, Marcel.

The only reference I have to the fate of the last known Fokker X.Cs, are the ones that were in Finnish service. And this is from wiki:

The last of the seven Finnish C.Xs that survived the war crashed in 1958. The craft, designated FK-111, served as a target-towing craft in the Finnish Air Force. The plane crashed into a forest on 21 January 1958, killing the pilot (Second Lieutenant Aimo Allinen) and the winch-operator (2nd Ltn Antti Kukkonen)

Thanks, a pitty. I hoped there would be one left of these important aircraft.
