What's the source on the second photo? Also, any text that went along with it? That might help determine why the 3/4.

I'm willing to bet they scanned if from some source. Wish I knew what that was.

Dunno, but there's more than 1, and they disappeared on later models, presumably in the mods to decrease drag
for better performance returns. Same bird, different angle..

This Storch is actually one of the early pre-production birds. A Fiesler demonstrator which toured here in the
states in 1938. A video here..
