Трехместный спортивный/туристский моноплан с закрытой кабиной
Koolhoven FK 41
Ф. Кулховен спроектировал несколько не самых удачных самолетов, включая двухместный учебный полутораплан FK 32, трехмоторный FK 33 на девять пассажиров (использовался в компаниях "Lufthansa" и "German Aero"), трехместный гидроплан-разведчик FK 34 и двухместную ультралегкую машину FK 30 Toerist.
Следом был разработан трехместный спортивный высокоплан FK 41. Первый FK 41 поднялся в воздух в июле 1928 года. Самолет строился в Голландии серийно в двух вариантах: FK 41 Mk I с мотором Cirrus Hermes мощностью 105 л.с. и FK 41 Mk II с мотором de Havilland Gipsy мощностью 130 л.с.
Оба самолета в Великобритании выпускала по лицензии "Desoutter Aircraft Company", всего был построен 41 аппарат.
Позже FK 41 получил упрощенное хвостовое оперение. В годы войны самолеты голландской и британской постройки эксплуатировались в Австралии, Бельгийском Конго и в Южной Африке.
