OMG, the owner deserves to be slapped for that Storch-ripoff.
This is like modifying a warbird with a turboprop!
Gosh!

The Storch is as far as I can tell a standard fuselage, jacked up U/C, Cub tundra tyres and a Super Cub nose (presumably with the Super Cub engine)...
It kicks botty 8)
I'm still looking for the ID of that first one, bugging me that I can't find it!

That Sonex looks like it would fall apart if you touched it... ;) I'll take that Air Camper any day.
