Hi,
It sure looks like an early Fokker transport in that picture.

Friends,
One sure can be led to believe it's either a Fokker or a Junkers, it's definately painted in early KLM colors with the black nose. However, the tail and sharply angled windshield gives it away as a Ford Tri-motor, check out the picture here:
