Custom built by gernot bruckman and his father. Not for purchase.

Andrew jesky bought that plan e and repainted it.

I believe it was called seduction.

Chuck is right, the model is the Sensation (Gernot Bruckmann's model).

The airplane is available for purchase. You must contact Gernot Bruckmann in order to get the model. Probably best place is either his website or facebook.

Basic kit is around $1300 if I remember, but shipping is kind of a killer from Europe.

The actual plane in that picture is Mark Leseberg's Sensation (Gernot's design). It is for sale after the Nats RTF less RX and batteries.

Thanks for the corrections, my memory was from some time ago and what I had heard at the NATS last year.

1300 is a bargain but alas, shipping is a bear.

If you are into building, check out the Harmony 2 at insightrc.com , the plane is a a blast to fly and perfroms very well.

Oh I'm in then!

I have to admit, thats one mean looking bipe!

I keep hearing that biplanes are better generally but suffer in wind. Would you be an idiot to fly one in Chigago or Dodge City? I live in a city with similar amounts of moving air, and it's always crossed to the box!
