Strongly Turbulent D.31D
The Stark Turbulent D.31D is one of the first aircraft types to be built in Germany following the re- approval of aviation after the Second World War .
Over the years, the aviation company Stark Flugzeugbau KG in Minden , Westphalia, produced 35 of the Turbulent D.31D, which complied with German approval regulations. The basis was the lighter and smaller amateur version of the French Druin D.31 . A copy of the machine built in 1957 with the D-ENEK approval is now in the Deutsches Museum in Munich .
