Model Type: Fi 156 Storch
Aftermarket addons: none

The daring mountain top rescue by plane of Mussolini remains one of WW II notable moments. Landing a Fi 156 much less taking off with considerably more weight was something that most likly the Storch was the sole fixed wing aircraft of it's day could have done. Using the Tamiya 1/48 Storch SOB.

Will be interested in seeing how this one builds out Don.I do not think I have seen a build on this one?
 
Gonna do the Storch? Good one! I am looking forward to watching this one.
 
A very nice aircraft, so good choice. I was able to get a real close look at Kermit Weeks Storch and a demo on a visit to the now defunct Fantasy of Flight a couple of years back.

This should go together well.
get pictures?
