From Aerodynamic Media: Warbirds of Norway’s Fieseler Fi 156 Storch Wk.Nr. 1816, built by Morane-Saulnier in Puteaux, France, flew again earlier this month in Kjeller.
After serving with the French air force, the aircraft joined the civilian registry as F-BJQB until 1970, when it was exported to the US.
It has been restored to be as close to the original Fi 156C-3 specifications as possible, complete with an original Argus AS 10C engine, original instruments and equipment, and the markings of an aircraft that served with JG 5 in Norway.
