Just got my ppl at the beginning of this year, but this gives me a nice goal to work towards, I want to fly this beauty at least once😍

Beautiful aircraft reproduction, some rollover protection would’ve been nice though.

Looks like a blast to fly, and probably pretty economical w/ the ULiS power!

It is built to be tough, like all classic Junkers.

One nitpick tho, this machine is from Switzerland. That's where the new Junkers company is based.
