According to Alex Imrie's The Fokker Triplane,
Arms and Armor, 1992, pgs 116-117 under Technical Specifications, speed at level flight at
4000 meters altitude was 165km/hr which figures to 102.3mph/hr at @ 13,000 ft. I've read that it was much slower than it's contemporaries
but made up for it with it's superior maneuverability.

The book also suggests that this was a field test of 141/17 and it's performance would doubtless
suffer in service.

Hope this helps.
