Usually I don't fly vintage biplanes like this oldie I downloaded on monday.  This bird is a real beauty, I love flying it around :)

Stunning scenery and a nice slow AC to apreciate it with! looks rather similar to a certain british plane from the same era, don't you think?

Great shots though!

The Stampe Bi-plane was a better aircraft than the good ole TM. The similarities end at the vertical stabilizer. Performance was slightly better. Still some around.

The Stampe Bi-plane was a better aircraft than the good ole TM or the Bucker Jungmann. The similarities end at the vertical stabilizer and the Stampe was more solid. Performance was slightly better than both. The Jungmann is a fine addition tho. Great shots pal. Still some around.
