A nice pic.

But I'm afraid it wouldn't be possible that 10 soldiers with their equipment could fit in the Fieseler Fi 156 Storch cockpit. Unless they grabbed hold of the something outside like the people after the war in Warsaw. See the shots below.
IIRC, during the German invasion of Belgium about 100 Fi 156s were used to transport a battalion ofthe "Grossdeutschland" infantry regiment. Two men per aircraft and were landing on a stretch of road behind enemy lines. However I haven't heard the Storks were used for the attack on the Eben Emael fortress.



the pic sourcer: the net.
 

In India this is colloquially known as "Punjabi Class".
