History
Evolving
from the Bucker Jungmann, the Jungmeister was designed
to be an airshow demonstration aircraft. This aircraft
is painted in the colors of famous Romanian aerobatic
pilot, Alex Papana. He flew his Jungmeister in demonstrations
at the 1936 Berlin Olympics inside the track and field
stadium! The controls are light, responsive and very well
balanced making it an absolute delight to fly. The Jungmeister
has been used longer for aerobatic demonstrations and
competition than any other aerobatic design. Aerobatic
pilots of the past did such wild things such as attaching
hooks to the wingtips or rudder and picking up handkerchiefs
with it. It was capable of the most amazing low-level
stunts!
