Hey Jan!
How do you like the Storch? I've been following the FSaddon news for a while, waiting for its release. I was wondering if you could share your opinion on it?  ;)
Thanks!

i think icarus is coming out with one which, may possibly be better.... i am waiting to check it out first.... maybe check the storch thread on icarus site and see the screenshots, and judge for yourself...i bought and then deleted the first one that came out a while back.....

It is perfectly fine, a very nice model, with some fun animations (the flaps are operated by a chain for example) and you can really take off and land anywhere. I like it!
I would not wait for Icarus, the shots on their site look awful I think.

have any cockpit shots?...have a feeling yours may be better than the icarus cockpit but i'll have to wait and see.....i just happened to like the exterior better......when it comes out we can post some comparison shots:)
example i got the gloster gladiator from fsaddon and icarus, and i do enjoy aspects of both, although i'm more attached to the fsaddon one in this case.......

this is the only one I have now:

I like the exterior of this one better, looks more like a real Storch. The Icarus one's legs are far too short, as if he's still on the ground..

Very interesting indeed, cool though! I really like the WWII era German paint schemes, they're neat looking with that blue.
