I test flew the little Fokker made famous by the Red Baron. Like the other two fighters in the series, the Folkker D VII and SE 5a, it's a nice flying park flyer. It looks just as good in the air as on the ground. Watch for the full review in the Nov. Backyard Flyer

How about a quick note to its ground handling. I am assuming you flew it off the grass.

Awesome pics!
I've been having a blast with mine but that cowl is stupidly fragile. As far as ground handling, it's your typical tail dragger-anything other than the SHORTEST grass is going to be problematic for takeoff. 3 point's need a little power. You definitely fly this one down!
