More like a French DH Beaver.
yeah, i missed the storch connection. the body is all wrong. the tail is real brit looking to me.
PURPOSE, not appearance.
Army utility, observation, STOL.

...and at least one of the examples here in the states that I have flown has a big water tank in the aft compartment with a big, old looking Perrier label.
I wonder if that was stock, applied by an old sponsor or added as a good, subtle joke?

i missed that too. but now i see that is quite right. also looks like a good flyer. but it's light on control forces and a natural stol.
I took a lot of walk-around shots of a Broussard up at Arlington (just north of Seattle) a few years ago. I have a cool resin kit that I'll get around to one of these days.
