Bucker Jungmeister Aircraft
The German Bucker Jungmeister, a single seat bi-plane built after World War I was designed with performance limitations in accordance with the Versailles Treaty of World War I. Politically motivated, the aircraft was made to perform to maximum limitations allowed by the treaty and then used for acrobatic competition. Later the Luftwaffe Air Force clandestinely used the Bucker Jungmeister to train pilots.
