EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Fieseler Fi 156C-3 Storch D-EDEC, a historic military aircraft manufactured by Fieseler, a German aeronautical engineering company. The Storch, or Stork in English, was a versatile and iconic design, renowned for its short takeoff and landing capabilities, making it an ideal aircraft for various roles, including reconnaissance, liaison, and training. D-EDEC, with the manufacturing serial number 5802, was once part of the German military forces. However, its history took an unexpected turn when it was written off in April 1959. Remarkably, this aircraft was not discarded but was instead repaired and restored to its former glory. Currently, D-EDEC is proudly displayed at the Museo Storico dell Aeronautica Militare, located in Vigna di Valle, Italy. The museum, dedicated to the history of Italian aviation, is home to an impressive collection of historic aircraft, and the Fieseler Fi 156C-3 Storch D-EDEC is a significant addition to its holdings. The Storch's distinctive appearance, with its open cockpit and twin tailbooms, is a testament to the engineering prowess of the Fieseler company. This photograph, taken circa 1955, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the timeless beauty and historical significance of this remarkable aircraft.
