The Storch by rosiekind

The Storch

Not a brilliant shot because this was taken with my Samsung Galaxy Ace 3. It's sod's law that if I don't take a camera with me to Shuttleworth, there is always something of interest and 9/10 times I have my Nikon with me but not today!

For those who are interested in this old plane which is going back to Germany:

German production
About 2,900 Fi 156s, mostly Cs, were produced from 1937 to 1945 at the Fieseler Factory in Kassel. In 1942, production started in the Morane-Saulnier factory at Puteaux inFrance. Due to the demand for Fieseler as a subcontractor for building the Bf 109 and the Fw 190, Storch production was shifted to the Leichtbau Budweis in Budweis in 1943. - courtesy of Wikipedia

The plane looks in really good nick. Isn't it just Murphy's law that the one time you don't have the camera with you is when you need it?

Amazing to think this was used in the war - it doesn't look very robust.
