What is the red/blue one?

And the balsa one with the counterbalances on the flaps?

Thanks.

The first one is a Fieseler Storch. Tell us the wingspan and we can probably figure out who’s plans or kit it is from.

The biplane is a Grumman F2F or F3F. There were several plans and at least on company, Aristocraft, made a kit. As with the Storch, wingspan and other details would help to identify it more specifically.

A quick internet search makes me believe this was build from a Svenson kit. The wingspan should be 95”

The wingspan on the Storch is about 93 inches.

That is probably it. My measurement was 93 and change, but I may not have had the tape perfectly at the wing tip.

Thanks.

Thanks for the link!
I'll see if I have the plans to finish it. If not, then now I know where to get them. Interesting read on the article you posted.

The Fokker is very attractively done. I'm wondering if it isn't an ARF that has been recovered. At one point somebody, maybe Great Planes, sold an DVII that as about that size.

The Fieseler Storch is the 94" WS Dennis Bryant design due to the parts used at the cockpit, wing and canopy, the 95" Svenson use aluminum parts for the wing hinges and tubing for the cockpit, also the clear canopies comes preform, I have both kits that help me to identify it.

Possibly.
The guy I bought it from had a few recent ARFs new in box, but he has plans, wood, and many kits. I'll go through the collection of plans and see if there are any Fokkers in there.
