In 1953 Martin Schröder founded his first company: the Dutch Aircraft Company. He held three functions: that of
owner, director and sole employee. With some Piper Cub's he started with aerial advertising under the company
name Reclamair. In 1974 Reclamair moved from Hilversum airport to Lelystad Airport. In the same year the
Martinair Flight Academy was founded on the new location. It started with the training of private pilots and from
the mid-80s professional pilots as well. In the late nineties it started the professional training for commercial pilots
and the school acquired the formally recognition of the European aviation authority .
The Diamond DA42 Twin Star is a 4-seater produced in Austria. Its airframe is made largely of composite
materials.The aircraft was certified in Europe and 2005 in the USA in 2004. The original Tielert diesel engine was
replaced in 2009 by the Austro E4 300 4 cylinder diesel engine, designed and manufactured by a subsidiary of
Diamond. The Austro engine delivers 20% more power, while giving better fuel economy than the Tielert engine
and results in a higher gross weight and increased performance. This version, the D42NG, has an integrated
Garmin G1000 with a Garmin GFC700 autopilot plus the modern instruments such as those used in the today's
generation aircraft. The PH-MFA is in the Martinair fleet since October 2011
