I'd love to see a fly off between the Lizzy and the Stork.

Funnily enough the collection also bases an original Storch. [link] I'm yet to see them together, however the Storch only flew for the first time late last season so it is still on the cards. Hopefully a formation of Lysander, Storch and their new Polikarpov PO2. :)

What an oddly shaped wing.. havent seen one of those

It is a strange wing, it gave the aircraft excellent slow speed handling and the ability to take off and land in a very short distance. They were used to ferry resisitance agents in and out of occupied territory using it's ability to land in small woodland clearings.

wow....i never realized the Lysander's wings are angled slightly forward (Only ever seen one on static, and no overhead shot avail there). She looks good in black!

She does indeed look good in black. I was once lucky enough to see three in the air together. That was amazing. Sadly this is the only one still flying of the three at the moment. One of them sadly crashed but should be flying again soon, the other is now part of Kermit Weeks collection.
