Focke-Wulf Fw 44 Stieglitz

She was a very pretty biplane. Nothing more nothing less. With the usual biplane looks. Double wings, two open cockpits, fixed wheels. A tail dragger of course. You're wrong in thinking she's American. Don't think she's innocent. She's a real bitch, a Nazi! And she looked as smart as any evil SS officer in his uniform. Kurt Tank designed her well. She was easy to fly, ideal for new pilots. Today she would be called a weapon system. Giving future bomber, reconnaissance and fighter pilots their first taste of powered flight. This pretty little biplane was responsible for something. The start of Luftwaffe pilot's careers. On the road to killing tens of thousands of people, not all enemies. All this in a pretty little biplane with a quirky name - Stieglitz. Most remarkable of all, some still fly to this day. Looping, rolling, turning and diving. A German Tigermoth equivalent. Her place in history is guaranteed.
