Fieseler Fi 156 Storch Aircraft

The Fieseler Fi 156 Storch is a legendary STOL aircraft — a WWII liaison/observation machine capable of astonishing slow flight, near-vertical-feeling short takeoffs and landings, and operation from the tiniest of strips, thanks to its full-span high-lift wing with slats. Charismatic and historically significant, it is a prized warbird-class STOL classic available as originals, licence-built examples and modern replicas.
