The Fieseler Storch Fi-156 was another one of these very special aircraft that earned their fame in World War 2. Where the British used their Lysander for nightly STOL operations, the German side had the Storch to land on virtually ANY place that wasn't inundated.

This particular model is another master piece of our designated aircraft designer Simon Smeiman, and built after an existing and still flying specimen. I traveled to Florida twice to visit the wonderful aircraft museum and aviation events organization of Kermit Weeks; Fantasy of Flight. That's where I took all the photos for this bird, sat in it, crawled underneath and talked to the pilot.
Yes, it is a war time and military aircraft, and yes, some versions have a machine gun in the back.... and it actually fires as well. But even if you're not so fond of wartime machines, chances are you'll love this little bird. You can use the unarmed Ambulance version.
It flies slower than a Cessna, lands in about a quarter of the distance, has excellent visibility all around and is the ultimate plane to savour the scenery gliding by underneath.
Add to it the TONS of animations that Simon built in and you'll have the best scenery hugging aircraft for FSX that you can imagine.
