This spectacular Jungmeister belongs to Mark Rijkse. It has just been refurbished at Personal Plane Service in High Wycombe (Booker airfield on the Western outskirts of London.) PPS have been a part of classic aviation in the UK since the company was founded in the 1950s by Doug Bianchi. Famous for so many things: Spitfires, movie aircraft ("Those Magnificent Men in their Flying machines", "Darling Lili", "The Blue Max") and many spectacular restorations. Thank you to Tom Woodhouse of PPS for sending the pictures. - Several more have been added to the Jungmeister section of the photo gallery.

"We've just finished a major refurb on her at Personal Plane Services, Booker and Mark's other Bucker, Jungmann A-12 has just entered the workshop for a similar treatment, it's amazing what lovely repairs you find under all that fabric Smile With able assistance from Rick Wenger we were able to get her look about as authentic as possible and we'll do our best to do the same with A-12."
