It is still highly valued today as a sport aircraft and can fly circles around its contemporary, the British-built Tiger Moth\u2014though some may call that an \u201capples and oranges\u201d argument. Over 700 Stampes were produced, and for over a decade, it was the principal training aircraft in France.<\/p>\n

In the 1960s and 1970s, a British four-ship flying group called Rothman\u2019s Aerobatic Team used Stampes to dazzle European crowds by performing formation aerobatics, including outside loops with ribbons tied between the four aircraft!<\/p>\n

The Stampe has also enjoyed a career as an international movie star. Even though the aircraft was used as a trainer during World War II, more Stampes have been dolled up to represent World War I aircraft than any other airplane type. Look closely the next time you see a World War I flying film. That German Pfalz or British Se-5 just might be a Stampe!<\/p>\n
