• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Lefty is hot on the trail as usual. I thought this was the 3 V-II Sturmer initially, but the text that was with the photos seem to indicate a Sturmer 5. Anything in your tomes on the mysterious 5 Mike?

Either way, a cold one is in order.:icon29:
 
This from the redoubtable Heinz Nowarra.. The dates for the record-breaking flight are the same as your French quote but it never refers to a Sturmer 5. Note rare pic of the Stromer.
 
The maker of this European machine is probably best known for a pair of fighters, though they also produced some bombers.
