In 1927, Focke-Wulf built the S-24 "Kiebitz" also known as the "Peewit".
This biplane is a look-a-like with the UL-biplane "Kiebitz". The modern
Kiebitz was designed by Michael Platzer and is available as an
UL-biplane kit since 1984. Almost 300 Kiebitz biplanes already have been
build by homebuilders throughout the world. When You want a new Kiebitz,
You have to build it Yourself in accordance with the drawings! It costs
a lot of perseverance: building a Kiebitz will take about 1500 hours. If
You lose courage: it is possible to purchase some parts, like the
under-carriage.
Kapuziner Airlines' Kiebitz D-MQYJ was photographed at Flugplatz
Kulmbach in Germany.
